Pass data to jquery ajax start event

In our master js file (A file presented on all pages) we add a callback to 

$("body").ajaxStart

In the callback we show a ajax spinner and we hide it in the callback for ajaxStop

This have worked great, for all ajax calls.. BUT, we have got a new requirement that require us to use long time polling (Comet), for these request I do not want the spinner to show.

Can I pass data to the ajaxStart method somehow from the $.getJSON method call?

Solution

  • global: false will not fire those events. global: true is the default.
