$.ajax supports an option called beforeSend so it would be something like:
$.ajax({
type:"POST",
url:"some.php",
data:"name=John&location=Boston",
success:function(msg){
alert("Data Saved: "+msg);
}
beforeSend:function() {
alert("Sending request to server');
}
});
I am assuming you are using $.ajax because you are probably using the "same"
page with either GET or POST.

Subject: [jQuery] Creating an ajax status
I have a number of GET and POST ajax calls that do various things my
script. For each one, I would like to set a status that is a string,
so that I can out put that to the user. So, it might look like this:
Ajax POST
Posting to page
Ajax GET
Getting content page
Ajax POST
Sending data to page
Basically I want to set the status using something like $
('#status_div').text(); so that the user will see the status text when
each ajax function is run.
Does anyone have ideas on how this could be accomplished?
