CodingForums.com - View Single Post - jQuery $.ajax returns JSON but not storing in variable

kmatheny · 11-11-2009, 04:18 PM

I've updated my PHP file to include "application/json" headers, and I'm getting a JSON response back, but it just refuses to trigger a Success or Complete action- not to mention it won't store the object as a variable.

PLEASE HELP! I've got less than 2 weeks to make this work or my project is going to be in some serious trouble. You can copy and paste this code directly and see what I'm talking about (using Firebug you can see the JSON response.)

Code:

var dummyVar = $.ajax({
      type: "GET",
      dataType: "jsonp",
      url: "http://www.kylematheny.com/siteground.php?callback=?",
      success: function() {
          alert('Success!');
      },
      complete: function() {
          alert('Completed.');
      }
  });
