No response from MediaWiki API using jQuery

by

You need to trigger JSONP behavior with $.getJSON() by adding &callback=? on the querystring, like this:

$.getJSON("http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=revisions&rvprop=content&titles="+title+"&format=json&callback=?", function(data) {
    doSomethingWith(data);
});

You can test it here.

Without using JSONP you’re hitting the same-origin policy which is blocking the XmlHttpRequest from getting any data back.
