Wrap jQuery's $.ajax() method to define global error handling

Question

Branching off of questions like this one, I\'m looking to wrap jQuery\'s $.ajax() method such that I can provide error handling in one location, which would then be used aut

Answer 1

I think it's a bad idea. I think wrapping $.ajax is fine, but you're talking about re-defining it. Anyone who doesn't realize this will get unexpected results.

As others have mentioned, binding a handler to $.ajaxError is the way to go.
