I use that technique as well, and it's nice because it gets the error checking out of the way of the main code. I also have used a wrapper plugin around $.ajax in some cases. Neither is burdensome. $.ajax is already one of the most complex and least consistent methods in jQuery, so if anything I'd like to see it get simpler. For example, the method now handles jsonp requests (based on either dataType or the domain in the url) but many of the completion methods expect a xhr object which jsonp requests don't have. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery Development" group.
