My Ajax call:
$.ajax({
url : path,
type: 'POST',
dataType : 'json',
data: data,
success: function(memberExtra) {
console.log (memberExtra);
}
});
My response:
HTTP/1.0 201 Created
Cache-Control: no-cache
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2015 23:49:09 GMT
{"memberExtras":{"label":"seller","dropdown":"abc"}}
My PHP:
use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\Route;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\JsonResponse;
/**
* Update the pulldown menus.
*
* @Route("/classification", name="classification")
* @Template()
*/
public function classificationAction(Request $request)
{
$memberType = $request->request->get('classification');
$label = $memberType["user"]["memberType"];
$dropdown = "abc";
$response = new Response(json_encode(array('memberExtras' => array(
'label' => $label,
'dropdown' => $dropdown,
))), Response::HTTP_CREATED);
$response->headers->set('Content-Type', 'application/json');
return new Response($response);
}
The console.log doesn't output anything. Even if a regular text expression like ("test").
If I remove the dataType : 'json' declaration and attempt to manually parse the data via $.parseJSON(memberExtra), I get this error:
SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data
Not too surprised. Basically, it seems that the parser gets tripped on the header returned by the Symfony class. How can I avoid this header and just get to the JSON?
Thanks!
