I was getting a similar problem when asking for a JSON response
(dataType: "json"). My issue was either that I had a subtle bug in the
success function, or my resulting JSON wasn't quite right. I've been
able to avoid the problem by making sure my JSON property names are in
quotes (i.e. { "name" : "bob" } ). I also had to make sure that the
data I was pulling from my database wasn't inserting hidden characters
in my strings (unicode, carriage returns, etc.). Luckily I'm using PHP
and Cold Fusion so can use addslashes() and jsstringformat() respectively.
In your particular case, it looks like you are getting HTML back. Are
you sure your HTML is valid? Did you remove everything from your
success function and just put in an alert("hello"); type statement? (see
if you are even getting there). If that alert doesn't go, then you KNOW
the problem is in your results. If you see the alert, then you can then
try to alert(msg), and see what you get. (basically, start the process
of figuring out if it's your function, or your resulting data). Chances
are it's in the data though. I don't see any glaring errors in your code.
HTH some....
