Abort request from RequestListener event

HI -

I want to listen for a request, then if certain values are included, present a dialog confirming that the request should be sent. Is there a way to abort a request from the RequestListener.filterRequest?

Thanks.

    Hi,

    hmm.. there is no obvious way in the API, what if you just throw an Exception?

    Hi,

    ok.. could you maybe use the SubmitFilter.beforeSubmit event instead? It allows you to return false if the submit should be aborted..

    regards!

    A little closer. If I return false from the SubmitFilter.beforeSubmit event, the submit never occurs, but the request step never completes one way or another. I have to stop it from the GUI.

    Ah, it was simple. I just need to have submit.cancel() in the event and the step completes.

    Thanks.
