Stop requests when all content loaded

How would you change this so it didn't keep sending requests as the user scrolls down when all the content is already loaded?

In answer to my own question:

I found this comment led me to change the javascript on the index page to:

  if(nearBottomOfPage()) {
    loading=true;
    page++;
    $.ajax({
      url: '/articles?page=' + page,
      type: 'get',
      dataType: 'script',
      success: function(response) {
        if (response != "$(\"#articles\").append(\"<div class='page'></div>\");") {
          loading=false;
        }
      }
    });

So when it gets to the end the loading variable is never set to false so it stops making requests as if it were still waiting on an existing one.
