jQuery Cross Domain Ajax

Question

My ajax code is

$.ajax({
    type: \'GET\',
    dataType: \"jsonp\",
    processData: false,
    crossDomain: true,
    jsonp: false,
    url: \"http://someo         


        

Answer 1

When using "jsonp", you would basically be returning data wrapped in a function call, something like

jsonpCallback([{"id":1,"value":"testing"},{"id":2,"value":"test again"}])
where the function/callback name is 'jsonpCallback'.

If you have access to the server, please first verify that the response is in the correct "jsonp" format

For such a response coming from the server, you would need to specify something in the ajax call as well, something like

jsonpCallback: "jsonpCallback",  in your ajax call

Please note that the name of the callback does not need to be "jsonpCallback" its just a name picked as an example but it needs to match the name(wrapping) done on the server side.

My first guess to your problem is that the response from the server is not what it should be.
