XMLHttpRequest: timeout event

The timeout event is fired when progression is terminated due to preset time expiring.

Examples

const client = new XMLHttpRequest();
client.open('GET', 'http://www.example.org/example.txt');
client.ontimeout = () => {
    console.error('Timeout!!')
};

client.send();

client.addEventListener('timeout', () => {
    console.error("Timeout!!");
});
