Jquery Ajax error handling to ignore aborted

Question

I want to have a global error handling method for ajax calls, this is what I have now:

$.ajaxSetup({
  error: function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThro         


        

Answer 1

You'll want to look at the textStatus argument passed into your error function. According to http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/, it can take the values "success", "notmodified", "error", "timeout", "abort", or "parsererror". "abort" is obviously what you want to check against.
