Oh - sorry about that, something like this:
$.ajaxTimeout( 5000 );
$.ajax({
url: doesnotexist.html,
error: function( req, msg ) {
if ( msg == timeout )
alert( Connection to server lost. );
}
});
I'm realizing now that I pass the message in to the second argument -
it should be the first. I'll change that in a later version, but it's
nothing major. Hope that helps.

The timeout is global, right? Maybe this gives some more flexibility:
$.ajax({
...
timeout: 5000, // overrides $.ajaxTimeout
});
What do you think?

Sure, certainly a possibility. I'm not sure why I didn't have that
initially. Ticket:

Re: [jQuery] Understanding $.ajaxTimeout
Hi John,
Oh - sorry about that, something like this:
$.ajaxTimeout( 5000 );
$.ajax({
url: doesnotexist.html,
error: function( req, msg ) {
if ( msg == timeout )
alert( Connection to server lost. );
}
});
thank you, but it's not working for me. Maybe I am misinterpreting
something... I load the page in my browser, disconnect from network,
start an ajax-request and wait for 5000 milliseconds. What happens is
that $.ajaxStop is correctly called, but none of the others (complete,
success, error). If I choose doesnotexist.html as a url, like in your
example, the error-Handler is called, but with a value of error
instead of timeout.
I'm realizing now that I pass the message in to the second argument -
it should be the first. I'll change that in a later version, but it's
nothing major. Hope that helps.
Almost :-)
Cheers, Arash

Re: [jQuery] Understanding $.ajaxTimeout
Hi John, John Resig schrieb: Ok - currently, unplugging your internet is not the same thing as timing out. Ironically (?) the browser behaves differently when you unplug the internet, sometimes throwing exceptions instead of just failing. So it's a different thing if I unplug my internet manually to my server is not available, wow. And I have tried it, unplugged my server instead of my client and you are right. For now, this is absolutely sufficient for me. I'm working on adding in the unplug the internet, have it fail gracefully functionality. Hopefully it'll be in by 1.1. So this would most of the times happen, if the user completely disconnect from internet on a dial-up connection and provoke ajax-calls then. It's also an issue, if you have a JQ-application that polls the server from time to time. Just to really understand what happens...

That's correct - and that's why it's important to get it in (at some point). It's definitely a frustrating issue to deal with - essentially, you have to wrap the entire XMLHttpRequest in a try/catch block looking for exceptions (of which no more internet is one). --John ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

Hello Jörn, Check out http://www.visualjquery.com/ It has a category for AJAX. thank you, I did. The $.ajax* ones are missing there too. Good night, Arash ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

Yep - this is using the same data that's on /api/ so it also doesn't have the aforementioned methods. I'm working to document them, sorry for the delay. Ah, take your time! But could you please announce it on the list or the JQuery blog whenever you are done with that? It's my last step of complete migration to JQuery :) Arash ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

It's my last step of complete migration to JQuery :) Sure thing, I've been lagging behind on my jQuery updates because I had to put off some of my book deadlines in order to get 1.0 out. I'll be sure to announce when the docs are fully complete. --John ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
