Question

i’m trying to include a JSON file generated by YQL via jQuery following this tutorial and get the following error:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token ;

This is the code I currently try to use:

$.ajax({
 type: "GET",
 url: "http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.run?_id=57aa32bf3481c8dca0c07afcf9b9dc29&_render=json",
 async: false,
 beforeSend: function(x) {
  if(x && x.overrideMimeType) {
   x.overrideMimeType("application/j-son;charset=UTF-8");
  }
 },
  dataType: "json",
  success: function(data){
  alert("success");
 }
});

I’m not as comfortable with JSON/JQuery/JS as I would like, but it’s not really my primary field of expertise 😉 . I’d really appreciate any help given.

Answer 1

Is this your problem?

x && x.overrideMimeType

instead of

x && x.overrideMimeType
