Hi - I'm facing typical browser compatibilty issue with firefox and chrome,
where as the application works fine with IE7.0 and 8.0.

I'm making a call to webservice from javascript as below but the control
never returns in success,error and timeout functions.

WebService.GetContactDetails(CurrentContactID, Onsucess, Onerror,
usercontext);

and the webmethod returns the data in JSON as below which is a valid one as
I've validated it through JSON validator. when I debugged the javascript
through firebug in firefox it throws validation error in
response.get_object() method as Sys.ArgumentException: Sys.ArgumentException:
Cannot deserialize. The data does not correspond to valid JSON. Parameter
name: data.

For more clarity, the exception is thrown at below function

Sys.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer.deserialize(this.get_responseData()) .

But in strange, when i simulate the JSON data from test application by
calling just above function its not throwing any exception in firefox, but
the same input data is throwing exception (SyntaxError: unterminated string
literal) in application at below code -

try {
var exp =
data.replace(Sys.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer._dateRegEx, "$1new
Date($2)");

if (secure && Sys.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer._jsonRegEx.test(

exp.replace(Sys.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer._jsonStringRegEx, '')))
throw null;
return eval('(' + exp + ')');
}
catch (e) {
throw Error.argument('data', Sys.Res.cannotDeserializeInvalidJson);
}


Any one from group would like to share their thought on this?

Thanks

Patrice - Thanks for response and that is special character and I changed it
to 'o'. still the issue remains as same.

Thanks
Nanda

The "IT direktor" uses a strange character. What if you use o instead ? For
now I would say it could be just an character encoding issue...
