I'm building a single page web app which makes an AJAX request to Flickr (using the Flickr API). When I try the request using curl or postman it works. When I try it from Chrome using AJAX (jQuery), I get a 200 response back with a status of "OK", but always 0 results. If I take the exact same URL (literally copy and paste) into postman/curl I get results. I must be doing something dumb but I can't figure it out.
JavaScript Code:
var photoQueryURL = 'https://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?' + $.param({
'method': 'flickr.photos.search',
'api_key': flickrAPIKey,
'text': title,
'tags': title,
'format': 'json',
'nojsoncallback': '1'
});
// AJAX Query:
$.ajax(photoQueryURL)
.done(function(data) {
console.log('Sucessful query.');
console.log(data);
})
.fail(function(err) {
console.log('Failed query.');
console.log(err);
});
AJAX Query:
Request URL:https://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photos.search&api_key=<my-key>&text=Alex%27s%20Pizzeria&tags=Alex%27s%20Pizzeria&format=json&nojsoncallback=1

Response (notice 5 results):
{"photos": {"page": 1, "pages": 1, "perpage": 100, "total": "5",
"photo": [{"id":(...)}]},
"stat":"ok"}
Suggestions?

Your code is correct. I've made a Flickr Account to reproduce your issue.
I added this code to print the results:
var len = data.photos.photo.length, html = "";
if (len > 0) {
var i;
for (i = 0; i < len; i++) {
html += "<li>";
html += data.photos.photo[i].title;
html += "</li>";
}
$("#list").html(html);
}
Something like this:
(function() {
$("#form").on("submit", function(e) {
var flickrAPIKey = "39417c145483a7fb3ee91c5fe5bc93fe",
title = $("#txtInput").val();
var photoQueryURL = 'https://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?' + $.param({
'method': 'flickr.photos.search',
'api_key': flickrAPIKey,
'text': title,
'tags': title,
'format': 'json',
'nojsoncallback': '1'
});
// AJAX Query:
$.ajax(photoQueryURL)
.done(function(data) {
console.log('Sucessful query.');
var len = data.photos.photo.length, html = "";
if (len > 0) {
var i;
for (i = 0; i < len; i++) {
html += "<li>";
html += data.photos.photo[i].title;
html += "</li>";
}
$("#list").html(html);
}
})
.fail(function(err) {
console.log('Failed query.');
console.log(err);
});
e.preventDefault();
});
})();
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="form">
<label for="txtInput">Input:</label>
<input id="txtInput" type="text" />
<button type="submit">Send</button>
<hr />
<ul id="list"></ul>
</form>
The Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
header is present.
