I\'ve an AJAX request which will be made every 5 seconds. But the problem is before the AJAX request if the previous request is not completed I\'ve to abort that request and
You should also check for readyState 0. Because when you use xhr.abort() this function set readyState to 0 in this object, and your if check will be always true - readyState !=4
$(document).ready(
var xhr;
var fn = function(){
if(xhr && xhr.readyState != 4 && xhr.readyState != 0){
xhr.abort();
}
xhr = $.ajax({
url: 'ajax/progress.ftl',
success: function(data) {
//do something
}
});
};
var interval = setInterval(fn, 500);
);
You can use jquery-validate.js . The following is the code snippet from jquery-validate.js.
// ajax mode: abort
// usage: $.ajax({ mode: "abort"[, port: "uniqueport"]});
// if mode:"abort" is used, the previous request on that port (port can be undefined) is aborted via XMLHttpRequest.abort()
var pendingRequests = {},
ajax;
// Use a prefilter if available (1.5+)
if ( $.ajaxPrefilter ) {
$.ajaxPrefilter(function( settings, _, xhr ) {
var port = settings.port;
if ( settings.mode === "abort" ) {
if ( pendingRequests[port] ) {
pendingRequests[port].abort();
}
pendingRequests[port] = xhr;
}
});
} else {
// Proxy ajax
ajax = $.ajax;
$.ajax = function( settings ) {
var mode = ( "mode" in settings ? settings : $.ajaxSettings ).mode,
port = ( "port" in settings ? settings : $.ajaxSettings ).port;
if ( mode === "abort" ) {
if ( pendingRequests[port] ) {
pendingRequests[port].abort();
}
pendingRequests[port] = ajax.apply(this, arguments);
return pendingRequests[port];
}
return ajax.apply(this, arguments);
};
}
So that you just only need to set the parameter mode to abort when you are making ajax request.
