API Documentation

Sexy()

• Sexy
• Sexy (settings)
• Sexy.method (arguments)

Creates and optionally configures a new Sexy instance.

Sexy is both a constructor and a factory, eliminating the need for the new keyword. In fact, to simplify syntax even further, each of Sexy's instance methods have been mapped to the Sexy constructor as factories as well.

For details on the settings available for Sexy(), see the documentation for jQuery.ajax.

Sexy.setup()

• setup (settings)

Set default values for future Ajax requests.

This method is similar to jQuery's native ajaxSetup(), except that the configured settings are applied only to the current Sexy chain.

For details on the settings available for setup(), see the documentation for jQuery.ajax.
