using beforeSend and complete with $.post?

could one use the beforeSend() and complete() handlers with $.post or do you have to use $.ajax for it?

This will work for complete:

var jqxhr = $.post("example.php", function() {
      alert("success");
jqxhr.complete(function(){ alert("second complete"); });

For beforeSend, you'll have to use $.ajaxSetup before calling $.post if you don't want to use $.ajax as they said before.

You have 2 options, use $.ajax() or $.ajaxSetup().

Using $.ajax():

$.ajax({
  type: 'POST',
  url: url,
  data: data,
  success: success
  dataType: dataType
});

Or, before your post run $.ajaxSetup(), but this affects all ajax requests:

$.ajaxSetup({
   beforeSend: myFunc,
   complete: myCompleteFunc
});

Gotta use $.ajax, unless you use $.ajaxSetup(), but that may not be the wisest choice.

Any reason why you shouldn't use $.ajax?

You could use $.ajaxSetup but it will apply globally. If this doesn't fit you you should use $.ajax.
