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

Because bluecollarcoders answer doesn't work for ajax requests aborted by javascript, here is my solution:

var unloaded = false;
...
$(window).bind('beforeunload', function(){
    unloaded = true;
});


$(document).ajaxError(function(event, request, settings) {
    if (unloaded || request.statusText == "abort") {
        return;
    }
    ...
}

e.g.

handler = jQuery.get("foo")
handler.abort()

will now be ignored by ajaxError handler
