function checkauth(){
       jQuery.getJSON("/users/checkauthjson", null, function(xhr){
           if(xhr.success){ return true;}else{ return false;}
            });
   }

Obviously, that does not work, but it illustrates what i want to achieve. I want checkauth to return a value which is checked against an ajax server script.

How do i do this?
