How to set timeout for JQuery $.ajax synchronous request and to do something

Question

if I have a synchronous communication ajax ($.ajax function), how to set a timeout for the ajax.

When the countdown ends, via function or any way to return false.

I want to achieve this approach:

ex:

if $.ajax is not timeout 
        => call function A() or do something; 

 else if $.ajax is timeout 
      => call function B() or do something;

maybe, detection the working time through other function,ex: javascript setInterval();,setTimeout(); ?

Look at the right under "Related" section, there is [this](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5225597/set-timeout-for-ajax-jquery?rq=1) link, which answers yours question. — ankhzet, Jan 05 '16 at 03:48

It can't be done as you are using synchronous request - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7919881/why-dont-synchronous-ajax-calls-in-jquery-support-timeout — Arun P Johny, Jan 05 '16 at 04:04

you can try this:

$.ajax({
  url: "url",
  error: function(){
   //error code
  },
  success: function(){
   //success code
  },
  timeout: 3000 //ajax timeout
});
