you should use both, the dataType: 'jsonp' on the ajax config and the
format=json on the url

 I read the recent thread on cross-domain AJAX problems with Wikipedia’s
 API but I’m still having problems. I’m getting the following error:

 XMLHttpRequest cannot load

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=recentchanges&…288393%7C-123.113268.
 No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested
 resource. Origin 'http://vispo.com' is therefore not allowed access.

 That results after I make the following call:
 $.ajax({url:url, success:ajaxSuccess, error:ajaxError});

 where url is the above url, ajaxSuccess is a function, and so is
 ajaxError. I also wrote an accessible function fooblah but it doesn’t get
 called.

 Please advise.

 You can query anonymously using JSONP (e.g. [3]), or by querying from your
 own server rather than from a webpage. If you are going to be querying from
 a webpage, do review the API Etiquette page.[4]

 Hello!

 I got my queries working with the following code. Try removing your
 callback parameter from the url and try this:

 $.ajax({
    'url': url,
    'dataType': 'jsonp',
    'cache': true,
    'success': ajaxSuccess,
    'error': ajaxError
 });

 Hi Kristian,

 Thanks for your help. I have removed the callback parameter (and the
 format=jsonfm) from the below url and have also changed the $.ajax call as
 you advise. Consequently, I am no longer getting the error I previously
 was. However, I am getting the below error:

 Resource interpreted as Script but transferred with MIME type text/html: "

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=recentchanges&…10246334638".
 jquery-1.11.0.min.js:4
 Refused to execute script from '

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=recentchanges&…
 because its MIME type ('text/html') is not executable, and strict MIME type
 checking is enabled.

 I am getting this error both locally and after I upload to my real server.
 Please advise.

 Actually you should pass format=json if you want JSON to be returned. If
 no format parameter is specified, the API defaults to "xmlfm", which is
 an HTML representation of the XML format. See

 Hi Legoktm,

 Did you note

 $.ajax({
  'url': url,
  'dataType': 'jsonp',
  'cache': true,
  'success': ajaxSuccess,
  'error': ajaxError
 });

 I presume the ‘dataType’:’jsonp’ inserts some parameter in the URL that
 sets the format. To jsonp.
