I'm a bit confused. In the autocomplete plugin source I see these
lines:
$.ajax({
// try to leverage ajaxQueue plugin to abort
previous requests
mode: "abort",
The ajaxqueue plugin that Jorn links to here from bassistance.de,
http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/lib/jquery.ajaxQueue.js
looks like it'll work, because I see the following:
$.ajax = function(settings) {
// create settings for compatibility with ajaxSetup
settings = jQuery.extend(settings, jQuery.extend({},
jQuery.ajaxSettings, settings));
var port = settings.port;
switch(settings.mode) {
case "abort":
HOWEVER, when I got to the ajaxQueue project/plugin page (http://
plugins.jquery.com/project/ajaxqueue), the download link points to a
drastically different-looking file (http://plugins.jquery.com/files/
jquery-ajax-queue_1.0.js.txt) which doesn't even seem to touch $.ajax
to add support for the 'mode' parameter--it only defines $.ajaxSync
and $.ajaxQueue.
What gives? Is the one that Jorn links to just not the
"official" (i.e. non Resig-authored) AJAX queuing library?
