Cancel pending AJAX requests in PHP app?

Question

I\'m having problems canceling my XHR requests when navigating between pages. I have a page that has 8 requests that get fired off. I cancel them on click of a link outside

Answer 1

Are you storing your Ajax Request on a variable?. If not, that's what you need to do to completely cancel a request

var xhr = $.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "anyScript.php",
    data: "data1=0&data2=1",
    success: function(msg){
       //Success Function
    }
});

//here you abort the request
xhr.abort()
