Parsing a jQuery.ajax error response message

I am posting data from one ASP.NET page to another via jQuery ajax call in a form of JSON.

I am simulating the situation, where is get an error on ajax call. I get a response message in case of an error and I need to assign this html to an element on the page.

Here is what I get in a message: jquery.ajax response

I have the msg javascript variable, that, when looked up via Chrome debugger shows me that it contains info I need in responseText.

How do I get the value of responseText to display on the page?

You can see in the code just under your mouse pointer - only with "r", not capital "R":

msg['responseText']

Since its an Object use the dot notation to access it like xhr.responseText

error: function(xhr, status, error) {

  var err = eval("(" + xhr.responseText + ")");

  alert(err.Message);

}

In JavaScript variable names are case sensitive. In your example, you were trying to access the responseText field on the msg object, but you had a capital 'R'. Try this instead:

msg['responseText']

Or in much better style:

msg.responseText
