SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

For the benefit of searchers looking to solve a similar problem, you can get a similar error if your input is an empty string.

e.g.

var d = "";
var json = JSON.parse(d);

or if you are using AngularJS

var d = "";
var json = angular.fromJson(d);

In chrome it resulted in 'Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input', but Firebug showed it as 'JSON.parse: unexpected end of data at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data'.

Sure most people won't be caught out by this, but I hadn't protected the method and it resulted in this error.


The fact the character is a < make me think you have a PHP error, have you tried echoing all errors.

Since I don't have your database, I'm going through your code trying to find errors, so far, I've updated your JS file

$("#register-form").submit(function (event) {

    var entrance = $(this).find('input[name="IsValid"]').val();
    var password = $(this).find('input[name="objPassword"]').val();
    var namesurname = $(this).find('input[name="objNameSurname"]').val();
    var email = $(this).find('input[name="objEmail"]').val();
    var gsm = $(this).find('input[name="objGsm"]').val();
    var adres = $(this).find('input[name="objAddress"]').val();
    var termsOk = $(this).find('input[name="objAcceptTerms"]').val();

    var formURL = $(this).attr("action");


    if (request) {
        request.abort(); // cancel if any process on pending
    }

    var postData = {
        "objAskGrant": entrance,
        "objPass": password,
        "objNameSurname": namesurname,
        "objEmail": email,
        "objGsm": parseInt(gsm),
        "objAdres": adres,
        "objTerms": termsOk
    };

    $.post(formURL,postData,function(data,status){
        console.log("Data: " + data + "\nStatus: " + status);
    });

    event.preventDefault();
});

PHP Edit:

 if (isset($_POST)) {

    $fValid = clear($_POST['objAskGrant']);
    $fTerms = clear($_POST['objTerms']);

    if ($fValid) {
        $fPass = clear($_POST['objPass']);
        $fNameSurname = clear($_POST['objNameSurname']);
        $fMail = clear($_POST['objEmail']);
        $fGsm = clear(int($_POST['objGsm']));
        $fAddress = clear($_POST['objAdres']);
        $UserIpAddress = "hidden";
        $UserCityLocation = "hidden";
        $UserCountry = "hidden";

        $DateTime = new DateTime();
        $result = $date->format('d-m-Y-H:i:s');
        $krr = explode('-', $result);
        $resultDateTime = implode("", $krr);

        $data = array('error' => 'Yükleme Sırasında Hata Oluştu');

        $kayit = "INSERT INTO tbl_Records(UserNameSurname, UserMail, UserGsm, UserAddress, DateAdded, UserIp, UserCityLocation, UserCountry, IsChecked, GivenPasscode) VALUES ('$fNameSurname', '$fMail', '$fGsm', '$fAddress', '$resultDateTime', '$UserIpAddress', '$UserCityLocation', '$UserCountry', '$fTerms', '$fPass')";
        $retval = mysql_query( $kayit, $conn ); // Update with you connection details
            if ($retval) {
                $data = array('success' => 'Register Completed', 'postData' => $_POST);
            }

        } // valid ends
    }echo json_encode($data);

Remove

 dataType: 'json'

replacing it with

 dataType: 'text'
