I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve here since, by definition,
you won't be able to return a value from an asynchronous interaction.
The closest you could get would be to do:
function test(){
var ret;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url:"/ajax/test/",
data: { ...]
dataType: "json",
success: function(data){
ret = true;
}
});
}
return ret;
}
But even that won't work because ret will be undefined if the behavior
is asynchronous. Changing to synchronous (adding async: false) would
make the above work.
