Possible to make AJAX call that doesn't return?

rated 0 times [ 63] [ 4] / answers: 1 / hits: 20090 / 12 Years ago, thu, september 20, 2012, 12:00:00

Is it possible to send an jQuery.ajax call or equivalent without any sort of response? I want to trigger something on the server as I leave the page with the onbeforeunload command, but it's not something I need to feedback to the client, so I just want to send off the command and not wait for a response.

Is that possible?

Every request has a response. Even if the server throws an error a response is coming back with the error.

You can ignore the response if you like to just don't add a success callback.

$.ajax({

    url: theURL,

    data: theData

});
