Handling loss of network connectivity

[ekstepj]

I do not seem to be able to trap some errors (this on Chrome) when network connectivity is lost (or server URL is unavailable).

I am getting a simple failure in the console:
aja.min.js:1 GET http://localhost:8888/server/quote/* net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
_xhr @ aja.min.js:1
json @ aja.min.js:1
go @ aja.min.js:1

This when my server is down.
