Problems with IE11 JSON

phil_uk

Hello
I have built a system that uses Datatables heavily......it has been developed and works fine in Firefox/Chrome even Edge, but it fails in IE.

I get the data via an AJAX call, and return JSON formatted data. If the data size is over a certain size (approx 750 records in this case), then IE11 returns a fail from the AJAX call and cannot populate the table.

The JSON is valid, it just seems to be IE11 that is complaining.

Any advice would be appreciated

Thanks
Phil

Can you provide a link t your page for troubleshooting?

If not then start by providing any alert errors and browser console errors you are getting. Also use the debugger, provide the generated link, to collect info when using IE.

While trying to generate anonymized data, I think I may have spotted the problem.

It seems IE11 cannot understand JSON with French characters, but Firefox can

I have an address of "Village Café" which makes it crash.
