Chaining ajax requests with jQuery's deferred

Question

I have a web app which must call the server multiple times. So far, I had a long nested callback chain; but I would like to use jQuery\'s when,then etc

Answer 1

My way is to apply callback function:

A(function(){
       B(function(){
            C()})});

where A, B can be written as

function A(callback)
$.ajax{
    ...
    success: function(result){
        ...
        if (callback) callback();
   }
}
