Description

I have a global ajax event handler in my app and I was very surprised when I couldn't find out the request type (get/post/delete and so) from the xhr object which is passed to the callback.

I have searched the documentation, but I couldn't find good solution. And I think that adding such property to the xhr object itself won't be very hard

By default, the this object of the ajax callbacks is $.ajaxSettings combined with the argument to $.ajax which would have the type passed into the method, if any. (The default type is GET.) I've updated the docs to clarify.
