No Able To Get Returned JSON

Question

I am able to returned value in alert form from remote php script. However when I console.log(IPAddress) my value is undefined. My Goal is to establish value of IPAddress from json response. Always a single value in json response. Example: {"ip":"192.168.1.1"}

Here is my code:

var IPAddress = function(){
    $.getJSON("http://domain.com/assets/php/get-ip.php/?    callback=DisplayIP",function(data){
                            //alert(result['ip']);

//alert(data.ip);
return(data.ip);
});
}

You need to Parse Json in order to read it. You can do this by using JSON.parse() method.

So, simply use JSON.Parse(data.ip); to get your data

`$.getJSON` parses the response. – Ram Mar 18 '14 at 05:41
return JSON.parse(data.ip) gives me same undefined result – user3431682 Mar 18 '14 at 05:44
@user3431682 First log this JSON.stringify(data).. and tell what it returns.. – Rajaprabhu Aravindasamy Mar 18 '14 at 05:46
{"ip":"192.168.1.1"} - stringify – user3431682 Mar 18 '14 at 05:51
@user3431682 Check the linked question. Your problem is something completely different from what these guys tell you. – Ram Mar 18 '14 at 05:52
does this apply to getajax or getjson? – user3431682 Mar 18 '14 at 05:56
@user3431682 `getJSON` uses `$.ajax` behind the sense, so this applies to all of them. After all this is the asynchronous nature of Ajax itself. – Ram Mar 18 '14 at 05:59
