I have reviewed a lot of answers to this type of question and now I am confused as to the best way. Given the latest jquery, I am wanting to Call an ajax function do ajax processing (success or error) // works fine on success or error return the status to the calling function for further processing in the calling function (doAjax), how do I wait for a callback then complete the processing for success or error (in this case its on success clear a form, on error keep it as is) Thx for any advice, Art [EDIT] There was a typo as you guys spotted, call should have been doAnAjax not doAjax $(function () { doAnAjax(Url, data, function (myRtn) { if (myRtn == "success") { resetForm($('#myForm')); resetForm($('form[name=addChlGrp]')); } else { $('.rtnMsg').html("Opps! Ajax Error"); } }); }); function doAnAjax(newUrl, data) { $.ajax({ url: newUrl, async: true, dataType: 'html', beforeSend: function () { $('.rtnMsg').html("<img src=_cssStyleImg_-A-loading.gif>"); }, type: "GET", data: data, cache: false, success: function (data, textStatus, xhr) { $('.rtnMsg').html(data); myRtnA = "Success" return myRtnA; }, error: function (xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) { $('.rtnMsg').html("opps: " + textStatus + " : " + errorThrown); myRtnA = "Error" return myRtnA; } }); }
