JSON response w/ onComplete

kyledecot

I want to be able to pass back a json array from my uploader.php script and then have that array available in my onComplete method but it seems to just be passing back a plain string. In my php file I am doing something like

echo json_encode(array("status"=>"1","message"=>"message goes here"));

but when I do an alert of the response variable in my onComplete method, I get {"stats":"1","message":"message goes here"}.

What am I doing wrong? How can I make jQuery see that this is a JSON array and not a plain string?

neotropic

\"onComplete\": function(a, b, c, d, e) {
	data = eval(\"(\" + d + \")\");
	if(d &amp;&amp; !data.msg){
		$(\"#response\").html(d);
	}
	if(data.msg){
		$(\"#response\").html(data.msg);
	}
},

I remain with using d as I tested for other errors.
You can pass general echo back and have d output it or use json.

you have a type as well

stats

should be

status

Hi!

I had the same problem and the following onComplete handler solved it:

       onComplete: function(event, ID, fileObj, response, data){
                var data = $.parseJSON(response);					
				if (data.type == 'notification') {
					alert('Do something');					
				}
            },

don't use eval,use parseJSON

It works perfect for me.
I'm using an app in django and there it return a json and code python looks like:

def add_image_to_alias(request):
destino_tmp='/tmp/'
for multipart_name in request.FILES.keys():
multipart_obj = request.FILES[multipart_name]
destino_file = destino_tmp+str(multipart_obj)
try:
archivo_tmp = open(destino_file,'wb+')
for chunk in multipart_obj.chunks():
archivo_tmp.write(chunk)
archivo_tmp.close()
except OSError,error:
return render_to_response('error.html',{'error':str(error)}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
except IOError, error:
return render_to_response('error.html',{'error':str(error)}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
except Exception, error:
return render_to_response('error.html',{'error':str(error)}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))
satus='ok'
response_dict={"response":"ok"}
return HttpResponse(simplejson.dumps(response_dict), mimetype='application/javascript')

I suppose that the main problem is the return of example in php.
