ajaxURLS call back

[phken91]

hi @dabeng ,
i am trying your plugin, everything run good,
but i found a bug in ajaxURL function
when i call children function, server side return json data,
but the plugin cannot parse the json data on line 541
if (data.children.length),
if will return
jquery.orgchart.js:541 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined
and my solution is add dataType: "JSON" on line 538
like this : $.ajax({ 'url': opts.ajaxURL.children + nodeId + '/',dataType: "JSON" })

hope help :D

Hi @lordzpipo . Literally, this bug implies that the returned data doesn't has "children" property. Are you sure you back-end returns JSON object like the following format:

{
  'children': [
    {...............},
    {...............},
    {...............}
  ]
}

hi @dabeng ,
i am returning JSON data with php json_encode()
and yes, i got "chidren" property in my data,
btw, i solve it when i add dataType:"JSON" to line 538.

All right. Thanks for your testing. It seems that it's necessary to set dataType to "json" in file juery.orgchart.js.

@dabeng why should the node need a 'children' property? if the property isn't there, it should be considered empty.
