javascript - How to stop ajax request

Question

I'm using jquery for making ajax requests

$.ajax(
    url: "http://someurl.org",
    success: function() { ... }
);

How can I manually stop my particular ajax request?

Answer 1

The $.ajax() method returns an object that could be used to do that:

var xhr = $.ajax(
    url: "http://someurl.org",
    success: function() { ... }
);

and then later when you want to stop the request:

xhr.abort();
