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.

For instance, as of version 2.3.0, $.jsonp() returns a promise when used in conjunction with jQuery 1.5+.

Compatibility

jQuery-JSONP has been tested and runs within all major browsers, namely:

• Internet Explorer 6+
• Firefox 2+
• Chrome 1+
• Safari 3+
• Opera 9+

jQuery-JSONP has also been tested with jQuery 1.3.x up to 1.7.x
