About
jQuery-JSONP is a compact (1.8kB minified), yet feature-packed, alternative solution to jQuery's implementation of JSONP.
Features
jQuery-JSONP features:
- error recovery in case of network failure or ill-formed JSON responses,
- precise control over callback naming and how it is transmitted in the URL,
- multiple requests with the same callback name running concurrently,
- two caching mechanisms (browser-based and page based),
- the possibility to manually abort the request just like any other AJAX request,
- a timeout mechanism.
jQuery-JSONP publishes a $.ajax()-like function called $.jsonp(): similarity ensures programmers get up-to-speed easily.
Compatibility
jQuery-JSONP has been tested and runs within all major browsers, namely:
- Internet Explorer 8
- Internet Explorer 7
- Internet Explorer 6
- Firefox 3.0+
- Chrome 1.0+
- Safari 3.2+
- Opera 9.6+
