    copied!<p>I'm following a tutorial using $.ajax, jsonp, and the twitter API. </p> <p>The example works on all browsers except for IE, unfortunately. And I when I try to load the twitter URL (<a href="http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=bowery" rel="nofollow">http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=bowery</a>) into an IE browser, IE attempts to <em>download</em> the file. </p> <p>I tried to fix this by adding <strong>contentType: 'text/plain',</strong> under <strong>dataType: 'jsonp',</strong>, as well as <strong>contentType: 'text/html'</strong>, and <strong>contentType: 'text/javascript'</strong>, but none of those variations have worked. Has anyone solved this jsonp + IE + $.ajax issue before?</p> <p>Tutorial code on github: <a href="https://github.com/troyth/webassite.com/blob/master/tutorials/tutorial4/index.html" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/troyth/webassite.com/blob/master/tutorials/tutorial4/index.html</a>. </p> <p>Javascript:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.0.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; $(document).ready(function() { console.log('doc ready!'); var search_term = { q: 'harrypotter' }; search(search_term); }); function search(search_term) { $.ajax({ url: 'http://search.twitter.com/search.json?' + $.param(search_term), dataType: 'jsonp', success: function(data) { for (item in data['results']) { $('#tweets').append( '&lt;li&gt;' + data['results'][item]['text'] + '&lt;/li&gt;'); } } }); } </code></pre> <p> </p> <p>HTML:</p> <pre><code> &lt;ol id="tweets"&gt;&lt;/ol&gt; </code></pre>
