jquery ajax success not working

Question

I got simple ajax call i could not get why it is not running success method despite the fact that chrome developer tools show that it is getting the response for the request.

$( document ).ready(function() {
    var url_API="http://moviesapi.herokuapp.com/cinemas/find/"+"PL15RH";
    $.ajax({
        type: 'GET',
        url: url_API,
        dataType: "jsonp",
        crossDomain:true,
        success: function (response) {             
            alert(1);
        }

    });
});

you can check the response by putting http://moviesapi.herokuapp.com/cinemas/find/PL15RH in ur browser — Imran Jawaid, Jan 13 '14 at 05:40
http://moviesapi.herokuapp.com/cinemas/find/PL15RH. try this url and also change response to some other variable name also jsonp to json — Karthick Kumar, Jan 13 '14 at 05:43

The API doesn't support jsonp. You're getting 500 (Internal Server Error).
It does support JSON, but you're getting the classic No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource CORS error. You need to explicitly send the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header on your heroku API:

Header property:

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *

A more verbose solution: "No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource"

Apparently not, because it's still throwing the same CORS error. – brandonscript Jan 13 '14 at 06:00
remus is right, check https://github.com/nickcharlton/moviesapi sourcecode, and you won't find any presence of `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` header set up presence. – Akaryatrh Jan 13 '14 at 06:29
no it support json: check it go to: http://moviesapi.herokuapp.com/cinemas/find/PL15RH – ReNiSh AR Feb 25 '14 at 11:05

try this:

    jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
        var url_API="http://moviesapi.herokuapp.com/cinemas/find/"+"PL15RH";
        $.ajax({
           type: 'GET',
           url: url_API,
           dataType: "json",
           crossDomain:true,
           success: function (response) {             
            alert(response);
        }

    });
});
