Hi,

I'm currently making Requests to a php page to retrieve some
information from a database.
At the moment, I have 4 Request objects created that all hit the same
php page for data and this all works fine.

But, is it possible to override the onComplete/onSuccess options so
that I can use just the 1 Request object to replace the 4 I currently
have? I'm currently setting the onComplete after the Request object
has been created. For example:

var ajax1 = new Request( {url:'/company_reqs.php'} );

...
...
...
...
ajax1.setOptions( { onComplete:getSomeInfo } );
ajax1.send({ data:{'req':'my_request', 'e':some_value,
'name':some_other_value } });

and that works fine. But, if I later try to change the onComplete (I'm
still hitting the same url for the request):

ajax1.setOptions( { onComplete:getSomeDifferentInfo } );
ajax1.send({ data:{'req':'my_alterrnative_request', 'b':x_value,
'c':y_value } });

then when ajax1 completes, it calls 'getSomeInfo' (i.e. the original
onComplete set on the Request object) and not the new onComplete I
tried to set.

I've had a search around here, Google and the mootools docs, but I
can't find anything that says you can't do this (or even find posts
from others asking the same thing). So, in a nutshell, is it possible
to redefine

I'm pretty new to mootools, so feel free to point out if I'm doing
something dumb/obviously incorrect.

Thanks v much.
