$ .getJSON无法识别JSON

Question

I'm trying to read a json from my Django server. I'm using $.getJSON call, but it fails. What's wrong?

Here's my Ajax code:

get: function() {
    $.getJSON("http://url.herokuapp.com/getdata?jsoncallback=?",
    {
        tags: "jquery,javascript",
        tagmode: "any",
        format: "json"
    },
    function(data) {
    $.each(data.items, function(item){
        console.log(item);
        });
    });
}

And this is the error:

SyntaxError: missing ; before statement
   {"string"*:* "Prove that I send JSON typing some random text", "status": "Done"}

What is marked with * * is where the error is located.

I'm starting a Phonegap app that will work with my existing web app (Just in case this info it helps)

Answer 1

The URL you are requesting data from is returning JSON, but by adding callback=? to the URL you are telling jQuery to treat it as JSONP.

Either remove the callback=? from the URL so that you can process it as JSON (noting that you may have to implement CORS support on the server to grant cross domain permission) or change the server so it will emit JSONP instead of JSON.
