title: Jquery Ajax - Tumblr API v2
body: <p>I'm trying to delve into the depths of the murky world of Tumblr, and can't understand how to get over the following error: </p>
  
  <pre><code>Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token :
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I believe it may be because I'm getting back json, but trying to use jsonp. Here's what I'm trying to send:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$(function(){
  $.ajax({
      type: "GET",
      url : "http://api.tumblr.com/v2/blog/MyTumblrName.tumblr.com/info",
      dataType: "jsonp",
      data: {
          api_key : "MyTumblrApi"
      },
      success: function(data){
          console.log(data);
      },
  });
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get a 200 OK response, and the data but still the above error (which I don't understand and would like to know more about)</p>
  
  <p>Tumblr also kindly points out the following, but I'm unclear on the specifics.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>All requests made with HTTP GET are JSONP-enabled. To use JSONP,
    append jsonp= and the name of your callback function to the request.
    JSONP requests will always return an HTTP status code of 200 but will
    reflect the real status code in the meta field of the JSON response.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Any help would be awesome, thanks!</p>
