Get edit token (wmt_token)

syntax	wmt_token(object)
parameters	An object with any of the following properties: onSuccess (function): a function to call on successful completion, passed a string containing the edit token. If omitted, a message is output to the JavaScript console. onFailure (function): a function to call if an error occurs, passed the XmlHttpRequest object. If omitted, a message is output to the JavaScript console.
return value	null.
example	wmt_token({ onSuccess:cTokenSuccess, onFailure:cTokenFailure }); function cTokenSuccess(token) { alert('The token is ' + token); } function cTokenFailure(xhr) { alert('An error occured: ' + xhr.status + ' ' + xhr.statusText); }
