beforeComplete event for $.ajax

[dalangalma]

While the complete handler is useful, it fires *after* error and success handlers. It'd be nice to have a version that fires *before* both error and success. That way you could have a common place to do anything that needs to be cleaned up before you fire either the success or error handler.

Could you provide a test case ? a minimalistic html file with the requires html and js to reproduce the problem. Thanks.

I'm not sure what you mean - I'm looking for something new. I'd be able to say something like:

$.ajax({
  url: ...,
  data: ...,
  beforeComplete: function() { alert("I fire first"); },
  success: function() { alert("I fire next if the request was successful."); },
  error: function() { alert("I fire next if the request was erroneous."); },
  complete: function() { alert("I fire after either success or error"); }
});

I think no need to have this callback since in case of success the datafilter callback does what you want and in case of error the error callback does what you want
