Hi all,

I'm trying to get something super simple running in Firefox, not
without problems.

>From a local html file I am using jQuery to make an ajax call to
CouchDB like so:
        $.getJSON('http://localhost:5984/test/test?jsoncallback=?',
function(data) { alert(data._id); })
but Firebug always shows an "invalid label" error, with the following
response: {"_id":"test","_rev":"1-1480939370"}\n

For instance, this works ok:
$.getJSON('http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?tags=cat&tagmode=any&format=json&jsoncallback=?',
function(data) { alert(data.title); })

Also when I try with a local json file (just {title: "test"}) it works
fine, when i put {title: "test"}\n , it doesn't.

Could the trailing \n be the problem here? Any other pointers from
people who have tried parsing CouchDB's json with jQuery?

Thanks in advance,

Francisco
