ajaxForm: how to get rid of '<pre>' and '</pre>' in the response?

I've read and also applied some similar solutions, but so far not get working well.

html

<form id="update-form" action="/update" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post">
  <input type="file" name="file" single />
  <input type="submit" value="submit />
</form>
<script>
  $(function() {
    $('#update-form').ajaxForm( {
      success: function(data) {
        alert(data);
      }
    } );
  } );
</script>

sinatra

post '/update' do
  ...
  content_type :json
  { :success => true }.to_json
end

When I run this, after clicking "submit", I receive in alert:

<pre>{"success":true}</pre>

This "pre" thing is really annoying which prevents proper call of parseJSON. I could do some string manipulation to remove it. But I would like to have better solution.

Thanks for the help.

Just answer myself,

similar to this question

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/908975/strange-behavior-using-ajax-form-ajaxform

and follow the link to this

Short answer,

change "content_type :json" to "content_type :html"

then "pre" will disappear
