javascript - Determining what jQuery .ajax() resolves a string of redirects to -

i'm aware redirects followed automatically, , have little/no control on process. fine, i'm still interested in request ends up. possible see url request ends at?

i not want rely on returned html tell me am.

sample code:

var originalurl = '/this/will/be/redirected'; $.ajax({     url: originalurl,     datatype: "html",     success: function(data, statustext, jqxhr) {         var endpointurl = insertmagichere();         alert("our query " + original + " ended @ " + endpointurl + "!");     } }); 

i'm looking around in jqxhr it, no luck far. (though, i'm new this, right under nose)

so far know (and have testet) possible detect if there has been redirect , how many redirects made (but not where).

you can have code:

var xhr = $.ajax({   url: originalurl,   datatype: "html",   success: function(data, statustext, jqxhr) {     console.log(data);     console.log(statustext);     console.log(jqxhr.getallresponseheaders());   } }); 

the jqxhr.getallresponseheaders() output on dev machine that:

date: fri, 05 aug 2011 01:29:20 gmt server: ... x-powered-by: ...  content-length: 5  keep-alive: timeout=15, max=98  connection: keep-alive  content-type: text/html 

the keep-alive: timeout=15, max=98 worth have deeper at. no redirect result in max=99 while 1 redirect results in max=98
