Hi tobi_one, I had the exact same problem and never got an answer: http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/6a8bca31cbc37600/68463ae52185dd1a http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/e96a87bb82267767
In the end, I abandoned the CakePHP ajax helper and did it in straight javascript. It was much easier than I thought, and I learnt something about the inner workings of ajax. I think you'll find it's quite easier this way. IMO it's one of thoswe situations where the simplified "helper" gets in the way, and the best is to get to the nuts and bolts. I used the example from the book http://ajaxphp.packtpub.com/ and the free sample chapter that will give you a template to work from for the ajax call http://ajaxphp.packtpub.com/1825_01_Final.pdf Good luck On Dec 2, 3:40 am, tobi_one <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I have the following situation: > A view where I call an AJAX helper with following options: > > <?php $options = array( > 'url' => array('controller' => 'users', 'action'=>'login'), > 'before' => 'startLoadingLogin()', > 'complete' => 'endLoadingLogin()', > 'failure' => 'alert(\'Error\')' > ); > ?> > > Once the AJAX call is completet the JS function endLoadingLogin() is > called.
