I'm working on a project and use ajax to update some informations in forms.
Here is my ajax function :
function update_ad() {
var project_name = document.getElementById("mol_project").value;
if (project_name !== '') {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: "controllers/get_project.php",
data: {project_name: project_name},
dataType: 'text',
success: function (data) {
var result = JSON.parse(data);
}
});
}
}
On my development environement everything works fine. The function get the json text from php server and parse it so I can use data after that.
But on my production environement, I receive a parsing error :
SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data
Here is the received Json :
{"project_name":"Jaguar","project_ORB_code":null,"project_manager":null,"project_abbr":"JR","project_mol_index":"2","project_comment":null}
Jquery, apache and php version are the same on both environements. I guess it's a server configuration issue but I can't figure out where it is.
Okay, in your JSON, there's a UTF-8 BOM in the front. Can you find the difference between:
{"project_name":"Jaguar","project_ORB_code":null,"project_manager":null,"project_abbr":"JR","project_mol_index":"2","project_comment":null}
And:
{"project_name":"Jaguar","project_ORB_code":null,"project_manager":null,"project_abbr":"JR","project_mol_index":"2","project_comment":null}
Where the latter is a valid JSON. Check it out with JSONLint . You need to make sure that the output you are receiving is free of UTF-8 BOM.
When I tried using the encodeURI()
function on the JSON, it gave me this output:
encodeURI(' {"pr'); // "%20%EF%BB%BF%7B%22pr" - Wrong one!
encodeURI(' {"pr'); // "%20%7B%22pr" - Correct one!
We can make use of encodeURI
to detect the anamolies and fix it in the client side. I am working on a solution.
The unicode signature, if you see, is EF BB BF , which is explained in this article . We can make use of this signature and try to correct it.
If you have the access to the PHP source, try setting the right headers :
header("Content-type: application/json; charset=utf-8");
replace dataType: 'text' to dataType: json,
Look at the spec for JSON (easily understood version here: http://json.org/ ). There is nowhere that says that parenthesis are valid. ({"foo": true}), for example will never parse. It may be evaled as it is valid javascript, but javascript is not JSON.
