I'm using a jscript to retrieve JSON data from Flickr. Works 100% in every browsers except IE.

I'm using the jquery each function that calls this specific function for IE:



//some code
if ($.browser.msie && window.XDomainRequest) {
var xdr;
var url = http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photosets.getPhotos&api_key= + apiKey + &photoset_id= + set + &extras=url_sq&format=json&nojsoncallback=1;
xdr = new XDomainRequest();
if (xdr) {
xdr.open(get, url);
xdr.send();
var data = JSON.parse(xdr.responseText);
//some jquery stuff
}
}


In IE the function return's a syntax error in the var data = JSON.parse(xdr.responseText); but the error is random, it retrieves a random number of photos before showing the error..



I've checked all the variables involved and everything is returning OK.



I'm using the json2.js



UPDATE:



JSON possible results:



{
photoset: {
id: 72157627083924637,
primary: 5943107169,
owner: 63570294@N03,
ownername: motorespt.com,
photo: [
{
id: 5943107169,
secret: e6099e3936,
server: 6029,
farm: 7,
title: Peugeot 206,
isprimary: 0,
url_sq: http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6029/5943107169_e6099e3936_s.jpg,
height_sq: 75,
width_sq: 75
}
],
page: 1,
per_page: 500,
perpage: 500,
pages: 1,
total: 1
},
stat: ok
}


or



{stat:fail, code:1, message:Photoset not found}


UPDATE:

thanks to all the help i was able to find the error and make a function compatible with IE 7+, Firefox, Chrome, etc..



function flickr_test(){
var apiKey = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
$.ajax({
url: 'http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/',
data: {
method: 'flickr.test.echo',
api_key: apiKey,
format: 'json',
test: 'test string',
jsoncallback: 'jsonFlickrApi'
},
dataType: 'jsonp'
});
}
function jsonFlickrApi(response){
console.log(response.stat);
}


P.S.: the 'test' var is string that i wanted to pass to the callback function

Parsing JSON on IE 8 and below have issues. It fails to identify JSON functions.



Download the file https://github.com/douglascrockford/JSON-js/blob/master/json2.js
Include it in your application and it should fix the problem.
