jQuery returning "parsererror" for ajax request

javascript jquery json asp.net c#

Been getting a "parsererror" from jquery for an Ajax request, I have tried changing the POST to a GET, returning the data in a few different ways (creating classes, etc.) but I cant seem to figure out what the problem is.

My project is in MVC3 and I'm using jQuery 1.5 I have a Dropdown and on the onchange event I fire off a call to get some data based on what was selected.

Dropdown: (this loads the "Views" from the list in the Viewbag and firing the event works fine)

@{
    var viewHtmls = new Dictionary<string, object>();
    viewHtmls.Add("data-bind", "value: ViewID");
    viewHtmls.Add("onchange", "javascript:PageModel.LoadViewContentNames()");
}
@Html.DropDownList("view", (List<SelectListItem>)ViewBag.Views, viewHtmls)

Javascript:

this.LoadViewContentNames = function () {
    $.ajax({
        url: '/Admin/Ajax/GetViewContentNames',
        type: 'POST',
        dataType: 'json',
        data: { viewID: $("#view").val() },
        success: function (data) {
            alert(data);
        },
        error: function (data) {
            debugger;
            alert("Error");
        }
    });
};

The above code successfully calls the MVC method and returns:

[{"ViewContentID":1,"Name":"TopContent","Note":"Content on the top"},
 {"ViewContentID":2,"Name":"BottomContent","Note":"Content on the bottom"}]

But jquery fires the error event for the $.ajax() method saying "parsererror".

I recently encountered this problem and stumbled upon this question.

I resolved it with a much easier way.

Method One

You can either remove the property from the object literal...dataType: 'json'

Method Two

Or you can do what @Sagiv was saying by returning your data as .Json

The reason why this message occurs is that when you simply return a string or another value, it is not really , so the parser fails when parsing it.parsererrorJson

So if you remove the property, it will not try to parse it as . dataType: jsonJson

With the other method if you make sure to return your data as , the parser will know how to handle it properly.Json

See the answer by @david-east for the correct way to handle the issue

This answer is only relevant to a bug with jQuery 1.5 when using the file: protocol.

I had a similar problem recently when upgrading to jQuery 1.5. Despite getting a correct response the error handler fired. I resolved it by using the event and then checking the status value. e.g:complete

complete: function (xhr, status) {
    if (status === 'error' || !xhr.responseText) {
        handleError();
    }
    else {
        var data = xhr.responseText;
        //...
    }
}
