Hi, maybe you want to check out the nice jquery.couch.js at
http://localhost:5984/_utils/script/jquery.couch.js ? have fun martin francisco treacy wrote:
Thanks Dmitry, Is this what you meant? $.getJSON('http://localhost:5984/test/test?jsoncallback=?', function(data) { var e = '(' + data + ')'; alert(eval('(e._id)')); }) It still doesn't work. Weird thing is I also get the "invalid label" even if I do nothing: $.getJSON('http://localhost:5984/test/test?jsoncallback=?', function(data) { }) Ok, my Javascript/jQuery is yet very rusty, but I can't believe parsing json is so hard. And actually couldn't find any examples "with trailing \n" - all others seem to work well, like the flickr example i posted (granted the response already contains the parenthesis). No one else has been playing around with jQuery and CouchDB? Thanks again, Francisco 2009/6/18 Dmitry Unkovsky <[email protected]>:eval('({"a":"b"})') is ok too, so you could just enclose response into parentheses. 2009/6/18 Dmitry Unkovsky <[email protected]>:You get "invalid label" error when you are evaluating json string as is, like eval('{"a":"b"}'), and eval('var a={"a":"b"}') is ok. Hope that helps. 2009/6/18 francisco treacy <[email protected]>:Hi all, I'm trying to get something super simple running in Firefox, not without problems. From a local html file I am using jQuery to make an ajax call to CouchDB like so: $.getJSON('http://localhost:5984/test/test?jsoncallback=?', function(data) { alert(data._id); }) but Firebug always shows an "invalid label" error, with the following response: {"_id":"test","_rev":"1-1480939370"}\n For instance, this works ok: $.getJSON('http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?tags=cat&tagmode=any&format=json&jsoncallback=?', function(data) { alert(data.title); }) Also when I try with a local json file (just {title: "test"}) it works fine, when i put {title: "test"}\n , it doesn't. Could the trailing \n be the problem here? Any other pointers from people who have tried parsing CouchDB's json with jQuery? Thanks in advance, Francisco
