XML Parsing Error: not well-formed in FireFox but good in Chrome

Question

I using jQuery Ajax like below:

$.ajax({
url: \'servlet/*****Servlet\',
      dataType: \"text\",
      success: function(data) {
        var subareaCoo         


        

Answer 1

Just Add this code. The problem is the server did not specify the mime type and firefox takes it to be xml. This code will specify what Mime type the xhr response is going to be.

beforeSend: function(xhr){  xhr.overrideMimeType( "text/plain; charset=x-user-defined" );},
