Question

I am trying to intercept an ajax jsonp response to do some response filtering.
My guess was, I could do this with custom converters. But the converter function is never run.
What am I missing?

var ajax_options = {
    dataType: 'jsonp',
    jsonp: 'callback',
    url: url,
    data: parameters,
    success: success,
    converters: {
        "jsonp": function (raw) {
            console.log(raw);
            return raw;
        }
    }
};
$.ajax(ajax_options);

Thanks, McFarlane

I’ve now listened to common sense and decided to not misuse the poor converters.
I’ve created a solution using $.proxy() to intercept every JSONP response while keeping the correct context in the callback function.

Because my solution heavily depends on jQueryMX I won’t paste my source here.
