Can I cause an xhr request to interrupt/terminate clientside? I have a number of long running requests, and I want to abandon them once they're no longer relevant.

  • A few have pointed out a significant exception to me, so figured I'd add it as a comment here: 'jsonp' and 'xhr' requests are different, despite the usually similar convenience/wrapper functions. 'jsonp' requests, as currently implemented, cannot be interrupted/terminated clientside.

I believe xhr.abort() is what you're looking for.
