Checking a Url in Jquery/Javascript

Question

All I need is a method that returns true if the Url is responding. Unfortunately, I\'m new to jQuery and it\'s making my attempts at writing that method rather frustrating.<

Answer 1

In general, you should probably run your script in Firefox using the firebug plugin. It will give you the details needed to solve the issue.

The ajax and post methods are asynchronous, so you should handle the result in a callback method.
