I am using jQuery.getJSON
to fetch the Facebook friends list, but I am not getting it. It works perfectly in Firefox and Chrome, but it is not working in Internet Explorer 8.
jQuery.getJSON("https://graph.facebook.com/me/friends?access_token="+aToken,
function(data) {
alert(data);
}
);
Also after doing a little more research I tried with this code also:
jQuery.ajax({
url:"https://graph.facebook.com/me/friends?access_token="+aToken,
type: 'json',
success: function(json) {
alert(json);
}
});
Try this to handle the error:
jQuery.getJSON("https://graph.facebook.com/me/friends?access_token=" + aToken,
function(data) {
alert(data);
}
)
.error(function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) { alert(errorThrown); });
And try this hack in your code (as per comment below)
jQuery.support.cors = true;
Internet Explorer 8 doesn't support CORS in the XMLHttpRequest object which jQuery is using. Internet Explorer 8 uses XDomainRequest object which jQuery doesn't support by default.
I totally solved this problem using Jason Moon script, here

hope it helps.
