It means your JSON is invalid.

1.4 started to use the Native implementation [when available] for parsing JSON and it has to be valid for it to work.

It has nothing to do with the getJSON call, it has to do with the response that comes back. The response is invalid, post the response body into JSON lint and validate it.

I would assume your JSON looks like



which is invalid.

Eric



I am really not trying to ignore you, I thank you for the help. Evn though you have told me what is wrong and I have tried to follow the advice I am stuck. I have pasted the following in the JSONLint:



And I get this:

syntax error, unexpected TINVALID at line 1
Parsing failed

But I have no idea how to fix it.

why would you paste that into JSON lint?

You want to paste what is sent to in the response to JSON lint

So the responseText would contain



put that into JSONLint

Building JSON by hand is an exercise in frustration. I suggest a library such as Google's Gson. Your life will be better.
