Json.parse Unexpected Token
Awesome! I was having this exact problem. No idea one could do try - catch on javascript. I'm always underestimating javascript :p Reply ↓ Stig Permalink to comment# February 25, 2015 Nice one, thanks.

Even this try/catch doesn't work. How can I get my code to do something specific if the JSON cannot be parsed? function init() { elemFront = $('div.flashcard div.bodyFront'); elemBack = $('div.flashcard http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16719083/how-can-i-catch-json-parsing-errors-in-jquery div.bodyBack'); console.log('before'); try { console.log('inside try'); $.getJSON('data.txt', function(jsonResult) { console.log(jsonResult); }); } catch(err) { console.log('error'); } console.log('after'); } Addendum Thanks @sagi, that worked, here's the code that catches syntax issues with JSON data: $.get('data.txt', {}, function(data, response){ var jsonResult; try { jsonResult = JSON.parse(data); } catch (e) { $('div.header').html('cannot load data because: "'+e+'"'); }; $('div.bodyFront').html(jsonResult['one']); }); jquery getjson share|improve this question edited May 24 '13 at 9:21 asked May 23 '13 at 16:21 Edward Tanguay 63.1k235580887 $.getJSON uses AJAX, which is asynchronous. The parsing happens in jQuery's internal callback function, which is outside the scope of the try block. –Barmar May 23 '13 at 16:35 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 9 down vote accepted if you are unsure of the response, you shouldn't use $.getJSON, instead you might want to do something like this $.get('...', {}, function(data, response){ var jsonResult; try { jsonResult = JSON.parse(data); } catch (e) { console.log("error: "+e); }; // the rest of your code }); share|improve this answer answered May 23 '13 at 16:40 Sagish 78859 This still doesn't catch the error as there's apparently no timeout for the call. –geotheory Aug 30 '15 at 13:04 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign u

Passing in a malformed JSON string results in a JavaScript exception being thrown. For example, the following are all invalid JSON strings: error handling "{test: 1}" (test does not have double quotes around it). "{'test': 1}" ('test' is using single quotes instead of double quotes). "'test'" ('test' is using single quotes instead of double quotes). ".1" (a number must start with a digit; "0.1" would be valid). "undefined" (undefined cannot be represented in a JSON string; null, however, can be). "NaN" (NaN cannot jquery parsejson error be represented in a JSON string; direct representation of Infinity is also not permitted). The JSON standard does not permit "control characters" such as a tab or newline. An example like $.parseJSON( '{ "testing":"1\t2\n3" }' ) will throw an error in most implementations because the JavaScript parser converts the string's tab and newline escapes into literal tab and newline; doubling the backslashes like "1\\t2\\n3" yields expected results. This problem is often seen when injecting JSON into a JavaScript file from a server-side language such as PHP. Where the browser provides a native implementation of JSON.parse, jQuery uses it to parse the string. For details on the JSON format, see http://json.org/. Prior to jQuery 1.9, $.parseJSON returned null instead of throwing an error if it was passed an empty string, null, or undefined, even though those are not valid JSON. As of jQuery 3.0, $.parseJSON is deprecated. To parse JSON objects, use the native JSON.parse method instead. Example: Parse a JSON string. 1 2 var obj = jQuery.parseJSON( '{ "name": "John" }' )

The caught exception is in the form of a JSON serialized string, plain text or HTML. If it is a JSON string, then it is parsed and converted into a JSON object and the details of the exception are extracted.The details of the exception are then displayed using jQuery UI Dialog modal popup.
