Re: [jQuery] form validation w/ simple ajax

Doh! I knew there was a reason I usually put the validation response in the callback instead of somewhere else. You could try passing a callback function as a parameter to the check, and then running that function inside the post callback. ie:
function ajaxCheckEmail(str,fn) {
...
$.post(..., function(json) {
...
fn(args.success); // fn gets success value as parameter
...
});
...
}

So you would use it like this:
ajaxCheckEmail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]",function(valid) { if (!valid) alert("This is not a valid email address!"); });

That is what I initially started out doing, but for some reason it was not
working out according to plan.  I am think it was not working because, as
the ajax part was excuting, the rest of the js was running its course.  Is
there a way to stop the progression until the variable has a value?
