Ajax Pagination cakePHP 1.3 and jQuery

I have set up pagination following the Mark Story article and it seems
to work fine EXCEPT my next, previous and number links are not
updating.

If I click on next after the first page load, it goes to the next
comment (cool), however the next link does not update to the third
page and just stops working. I can use the number links to each page
and they work fine but they don't update either so I can never get
back to page 1 without a refresh and you never know where you are.

Here is lies the rub. I am using one model for the main content of
the page and contain for the comments. Here is my controller code.

// VIEW
function view($id = null) {
if (!$id) {
$this->Session->setFlash(sprintf(__('Invalid %s', true), 'cshow'));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
}
$this->set('cshow', $this->Cshow->read(null, $id));
$this->paginate = array(
'contain' => array(
'User' => array(
'UserPreference.image'
),
),
'fields' => array(
'CshowComment.id', 'CshowComment.user_id', 'CshowComment.comment',
'CshowComment.created', 'User.id', 'User.username'
),
'conditions' => array(
'CshowComment.cshow_id' => $id
),
'recursive' => 0,
'limit' => 1,
'order' => array(
'CshowComment.created' => 'desc'
)
);
$this->set('cshowComment', $this->paginate('CshowComment'));
if ($this->RequestHandler->isAjax()) {
$this->render('/elements/comments');
return;
}
$this->set('title_for_layout', 'eGarage.tv - View The Garage Show');
}

In the view:

<div id="comment">
<?php echo $this->element('comments'); ?>
</div>
<div class="clear spacer"></div>
<div class="paging">
<?php $paginator->options(array('update' => '#comment')); ?>
<?php echo $this->Paginator->prev('<< '.__('previous', true), array(),
null, array('class'=>'disabled'));?> | <?php echo $this->Paginator-
>numbers();?> |
<?php echo $this->Paginator->next(__('next', true).' >>', array(),
null, array('class' => 'disabled'));?> <?php echo $this->Paginator-
>counter(array('format' => __('%page% of %pages%, %count% Comments',
true)));?>
</div>

and I have included the Js helper and the RequestHandler component in
my appController as well as <?php echo $this->Js->writeBuffer(); ?>
in my default layout right before the </body> tag.

Not sure if this could be the problem but I am serving jQuery from a
CDN and not from the webroot/js folder.

I am using an element because if I don't the page duplicates the
content that I am trying to update instead of loading via AJAX. This
may be the problem but I am stuck.

I can post other code if this doesn't tell the whole story.

Thanks in advance.
