JSON is just like HTML, its transfered by http protocol or its encrypted version https, only if you get it from a call thru websocket then you would be on websocket protocol which ofcourse both sides must support..

This is how I normally make JSON requests: var url = '{{=URL('some.json')}}/'; jQuery.getJSON(url).success(function(data) { // finished successfully alert(data); }).fail(function(err) { // ajax failed alert(err); }); There are many ways to do this, but this one seems to be the most robust for me, as it can catch connection and server errors.
