ASP.NET MVC 2 View with PartialView - PartialView Opens New Page

My code works perfectly in VS2010 C# but once published to IIS7 the PartialView (list of records) does not get rendered in the View...it rolls to a new page without the data except for the correct record count retrieved from SQL server. SQL server is on separate box.

I have searched for hours on this site with no luck finding a resolution.

View with the RenderPartial:

   <table style="width:100%">
<tr>
<td>
<h3>Outage Tracking List (Open or Active)</h3>
</td>
<td style="text-align:right">
<h1><%: ViewData["ApplicationName"]%></h1>
</td>
</tr>
</table>    

<% Html.RenderPartial("OutageSearch",this.ViewData.Model); %>

PartialView:

<%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<OutageTrackingWebSite.Models.OutageViewModel" %>

<div>

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

    function OutageSearch() {

        $("#OutageSearchForm #CurrentPageNumber").val("1");       
        PostSearchForm();

    }

Various functions then the rest of the partialview

  <% using (Ajax.BeginForm("OutageSearch", null,
        new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "DivOutageSearchResults", OnComplete="OutageSearchComplete" },
            new { id = "OutageSearchForm" })) { %>

<table style="background-color: #ebeff2;  width: 100%; border:solid 1px #9fb8e9" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2">
    <tr>
        <td style="width: 60%; text-align: left">
            <input id="btnSearch" onclick="OutageSearch();" type="submit" value="List Open/Active" />
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>

<div id="DivOutageSearchResults">    
 <% Html.RenderPartial("OutageSearchResults", this.ViewData.Model); %> 
</div>

<% } %>

additional PartialView

<%@ Control Language="C#" Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewUserControl<%OutageTrackingWebSite.Models.OutageViewModel" >

    <input name="CurrentPageNumber" type="hidden" id="CurrentPageNumber" value="<%=Model.CurrentPageNumber%>" />
<input name="TotalPages" type="hidden" id="TotalPages" value="<%=Model.TotalPages%>" />     
<input name="SortBy" type="hidden" id="SortBy" value="<%=Model.SortBy%>" />     
<input name="SortAscendingDescending" type="hidden" id="SortAscendingDescending" value="<%=Model.SortAscendingDescending%>" />     

<input name="PageSize" type="hidden" id="PageSize" value="9" />

 <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

function GetOutageDetails(OutageID) {

             if (formIsDisabled == false) {

                 DisableForm();

                 formData = "OutageID=" + OutageID;

                 setTimeout(PostOutageIDToServer, 1000);

             }

         }

         function PostOutageIDToServer() {

             $.post("/Outage/GetOutageInformation", formData, function (data, textStatus) {
                 OutageUpdateComplete(data);
             }, "json");

Check your included JavaScript files on the deployed version. If you are missing some files (MicrosoftMvcAjax.js, jQuery.js), the page could simply be posting instead of using an Ajax post.
