I referred this link, but with no luck. When I use the following link in the address bar, the browser shows json data.

http://xxxx.xxx.com:1234/products.json // Only a sample link

But when I try the following code,

 $.ajax({

                url : 'http://xxxx.xxx.com:1234/products.json',

                dataType: 'json',
                async: false,
                success: function(data) {

                alert( "test" ); 


                },
                error : function() {
                    alert("Sorry, The requested property could not be found.");
                }
            });

It always shows the error message. What is wrong in my method?

Have you run the JSON through a validator like JSON Lint, to check it is 100% valid? – Adrian Wragg Sep 04 '13 at 15:44
do you control the content? – PlantTheIdea Sep 04 '13 at 15:44

You cannot fetch content from other domains unless the other domain explicitly allows it, and that site probably doesn't. (The link doesn't work anyway.) – Pointy Sep 04 '13 at 15:44
change your error handler to ` error: function (xhr, status, error) { alert("Error:" + status + ':' + error + ':' + xhr.responseText); }` – Arun P Johny Sep 04 '13 at 15:47
If server allows it, use jsonp – A. Wolff Sep 04 '13 at 15:47
also check your browser console to see whether there are any errors – Arun P Johny Sep 04 '13 at 15:47
What is the exact error text? I'm expecting to see something along the lines of `ACCESS DENIED SAME ORIGIN POLICY` when using json. – Kevin B Sep 04 '13 at 15:51

@Sharun that means the server you are requesting from doesn't support JSONP. If it also isn't doing CORS, then you're only option is to use something other than the browser to make the request (such as your server) – Kevin B Sep 04 '13 at 15:53
Right, but JSON data is not JSONP. There is no way to access that data in javascript. – Kevin B Sep 04 '13 at 16:20
Because you ***can't*** access the contents of a script tag pointing to an external script. – Kevin B Sep 04 '13 at 16:23
Yes, you should send the request to a script on your server, then have your server go get the json. – Kevin B Sep 04 '13 at 16:26
What server-side language? – Kevin B Sep 04 '13 at 16:33
