Return your json response inside a <textarea> element:

Hi Malsup, thank you very much for getting back to me here and on twitter!

If I pass it all into a textarea, then the browser will display a textarea.. or? I am passing the data back and building a <ul> list ..

see below for the code I am using, the 'showResponse' function takes the json response and builds a list.

   $(document).ready(function() {
            var options = {
                dataType: 'json',
                target:   '#info',
                resetForm: 'true',
                success: showResponse
            };
      // bind 'myForm' and provide a simple callback function
      $('#synchem_form_file').ajaxForm(options);
        });
       
        function showResponse(data)  {
                $("#fileBox ul").append('<li id="'+data[0].pk+'"><a href=/'+ data[0].fields.file_name +' target="_blank" >'+ data[0].fields.file_title +'</a> <img style="cursor:pointer;" onclick="DeleteFile(\''+data[0].pk+'\');return false;" src="/website/images/delete01.gif" /></li>');

            }

Where would I do the textarea? In the showRepsonse? (Tired it but still gives me the json return as a file.

Mike, 

don't set the content-type on the response header.
