thanks for the reply, but it gave me an invalid label with my json, which as I've read before, can be "solved" by eval'ing it with the parenthesis: var myObj = eval( "(" + someJsonString + ")" );
but after eval'ing, nothing happens (again), no alert :( In firebug I can see the json is there... > Both of these methods work fine for me: > > $.getJSON('http://site1:8888/myjson.json?format=json&callback=?', > function(data) { > alert(data.result); > > }); > > $.ajax({ > url: 'http://site1:8888/myjson.json?format=json', > dataType: 'jsonp', > success: function(data) { > alert(data.result); > } > > });
