Do you have an example you could post? I would like to see some other options for readers looking for an answer. Thanks!

Wasn’t my issue, but very nice written

Finally I discovered that a jquery call before a form.serializeArray causes the IE to produce JSON parser errors.
After modifying the order my script works.

Well, I'm not familiar with C, but IE is trying to look for a .json extension regardless the of content type. I've found adding .json to the url fixes this. Can you try adding “ajaxify.aspx/abc.json”?

My code is still not working..

function GetMe() {
$.ajax({
url: "ajaxify.aspx/abc",
type: "GET",
contentType: "application/json;",
data: "{}",
dataType: "json",
cache: false,
success: function(data)
{
alert('here');
alert('here' + data);
},
error: function(xhr, data, a)
{
alert('error' + data);
alert('error' + a);
alert('error'+ xhr.status);
}
});
}

On Server side it is :

[WebMethod]
static public object abc()
{
//return "abc";
return @" [{ ""Name"": ""abc"",
""Name"": ""pqr"",
""Name"": ""xyz"" }]";
}
It is a valid json format. Throws same parsererror, xhr is 200. Pl help..

Thanks for posting that! There are a few quirks in jQuery 1.4. Yehuda Katz posted a good fix for handling malformed JSON with 1.4.

I had some problems today with JQuery 1.4 and IE6/7. After hours of debugging I discovered that my JSON was “invalid” (even with all other browsers working ok and JSONLint sayong it was ok).

My problem was a single n before the JSON string…
