使用jQuery访问JSON时格式错误

Question

So I have a JSON file whose contents I wish to access and store in an array. Everything seems to be working fine but I am getting an error in Firefox console.

Not Well Formed.

and it is pointing to my JSON. I validated my JSON at JSONLint and it says "Valid JSON".

My jquery is:

$(function(){


$('#test').click(function(event){

$.getJSON("myfile.json",function(data){

var items=[];

$.each(data, function(key, val){

items.push(key + "," + val[0].subject + "," + val[0].room);

});
alert('transfer successful');
console.log(items);

});

});

});

My JSON looks something like this:

{
"8": [ {"subject":"Signals","room":"L20"} ],
"9": [ {"subject":"something","room":"L20"} ]
}

It may here be noted that this code is working fine with the items array getting populated as expected. But I cannot understand why I am getting the Not well formed error.

Answer 1

This happens in FireFox when Content-Type is not set. Ensure you are returning the correct mimetype for your myfile.json request ("application/json" etc.)
