return AJAX callback return

Asked 2012-01-27T23:13:15.573

For example I have a function:

var f1 = function(arg) {
    var a;
    $.ajax({
        ...
        success: function(data) {
            a = f2(data);
            //return a;
        }
    });
    //return a;
}

var f3 = function() {
    a = f1(arg);
}

How can I return a after AJAX get data in f1?

javascript ajax

The easiest way to do this is to make the ajax call synchronous. Meaning in your f1 function setup the ajax call with async: false so that the function doesn't move on until the call is completed and the data returned.
