jQuery getJSON reported undefined function error

I'm trying to load a json file when the page is loaded. So I tried this code:

$( document ).ready(function() {
    $.getJSON("./db/url.json", function(json) {
        console.log(json); 
    });
    console.log("The page is loaded"); 
});

resulted in this error:

 [Show/hide message details.] TypeError: $.getJSON is not a function[Learn More]

I read some similar posts, but I still can't figure it out. can you help?

The same result if I use $.ajax

Solution

  • Make sure you do not use the slim version (differences are in the link attached). slim version does not include .ajax and .getJSON.

    full version for jquery-3.1.1.min.js can be found here.

    test it and check the result.
