SyntaxError: Missing ; Before Statement Jquery Jsonp

I am using below code to access rest service hosted on another domain. $.ajax({ type: 'GET', url: url, async: false, jsonpCallback:

Solution 1:

If it's really JSON you ask for, don't set "jsonp" as dataType, and don't provide a callback :

$.ajax({
        type: 'GET',
        url: url,
        contentType: "application/json",
        success: function(json) {
            alert(json);
        },
        error: function(e) {
           console.log(e.message);
        }
});

Solution 2:

the format of JSON and JSONP are slightæy different JKSONP is a function invocation expression

callback({"hellow":"world"});

whereas JSON is simply a serialized object

{"Hello":"world"}

fromyour posting it would seem that the server is returning JSON and not JSONP

So you either need to change the server to reply correctly (The actual callback name is a get parameter to the request). You should do this if you are using the ajax call across domains

If you are not using ajax across domains stick to regular JSON
