How to store json data in jquery?

Does jQuery's $.ajax call support only transfer of json or script data types, when request is cross-domain?

• I can see the data downloaded in my chrome console if the url is not json such as home page of .But it's not accessible in the success function.But if the url parameter is something that has json data as it's body, it is accessible through returnXHR.responseText.

• Answer:

  By default, $.ajax can only use script or JSON dataTypes for cross-origin resources. The origin domain must be configured to allow CORS requests for any other HTTP request types (get/post/put/delete etc.) See also: https://developer.mozilla.org/En/HTTP_access_control http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-Origin_Resource_Sharing http://www.nczonline.net/blog/2010/05/25/cross-domain-ajax-with-cross-origin-resource-sharing/
