Question

I am attempting to make a jsonp call with jQuery 1.7 but when the call returns I get the following error:

Uncaught TypeError: Object function ( response ) {
responseContainer = [ response ]; } has no method ‘json’

When inspecting the data being returned I noticed that ‘.json’ is being appended to the callback function name:

jQuery17206211688306648284_1336426518269.json({"..."})

Here is the code that is making the request:

$.ajax({
  url: "...",
  dataType: 'jsonp',
  success: function(data) {
    return console.log(data);
  }
});

Answer:

As adeneo said the server was trying to specify a callback function of ‘json’ this is handled by setting the following parameter on the $.ajax call:

jsonpCallback: 'json'

Answer 1

jQuery’s $.ajax function automagically adds a callback function to jsonp requests, but it looks like the json() function you are seeing is added by the server, but you could try :

$.ajax({
  url: "...",
  dataType: 'jsonp',
  jsonp: false,
  success: function(data) {
    return console.log(data);
  }
});

To disable the jQuery auto callback thingy, or just create an empty chainable function with the name json()
