$.ajax() resulting in parsererror

I have the below jquery which fetches a JSON object returned by a web service, but I get a parsererror most of the times.

$.ajax({
    type: "GET",
    url: 'scripts/php/fetchProbableDrivers.php',
    dataType: 'json',
    data: {'tripId' : tripId },
    error: function(e)
    {       

        alert(JSON.stringify(e, null, 4));                                 
            },
    success: function(drivers){
            }

Can someone please help me with this?

I think that there is a formatting issue with your json format .
You can check your response by changing data type to "html" and put the alert in success.. some thing like this.

$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: 'scripts/php/fetchProbableDrivers.php',
dataType: 'html',
data: {'tripId' : tripId },
error: function(e)
{       

    alert(JSON.stringify(e, null, 4));                                 
        },
success: function(strDrivers){
        alert( strDrivers );
        }


Then copy you response and validate your response from the site http://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/

I hope that using that way you can easily figure out the formatting issue .
