Cancel upload on AjaxUpload at onSubmit

Question

is it possible to cancel AjaxUpload during OnSubmit, for example:

var file_uploader = new window.AjaxUpload(
        'wall-file-upload',
        { action: 'attach_something',
            name: 'userfile',
            onSubmit: function(file,ext) { if(something){cancel_upload();} },        
        }
    );

So cancel upload is executed at onSubmit. Is this possible?

@AnirbanN, AjaxUpload is a javascript plugin http://zurb.com/playground/ajax-upload. And this question is addressed to their developers — ethereal1m, Jul 01 '15 at 11:39

You can use abort() function on jQuery ajax object, but you have to understand, that the request will be processed by the server anyway.

abort function must be called by an Ajax object. Can I file_uploader? – ethereal1m Jul 01 '15 at 11:51
Well, I need a source of AjaxUpload class to tell you how exactly it must be implemented, if you don't understand how it works – intale Jul 01 '15 at 11:54
Hmmm... From the source code. ` // Callback to fire before file is uploaded // You can return false to cancel upload onSubmit: function(file, extension){ } ` So just `return false;` in your onSubmit function and that is all. – intale Jul 01 '15 at 12:06

Well in this casze you can try aborting your upload via xhr.abort(), So try

var file_uploader = new window.AjaxUpload(
        'wall-file-upload',
        { action: 'attach_something',
            name: 'userfile',
            onSubmit: function(file,ext) { if(something){xhr.abort();} },        
        }
    );
