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

Question

I've spend over 6 hours to find an exception or a special character to find in my code but I couldn't. I checked every similar messages in here.

I'm sending the form with magnific popup. First I'm using inline popup to open my form than I'm sending all inputs to main.js to validate.

So, I just need a third-eye.

I've got: index.html, register.php, main.js

Here's the code

FORM

JS/AJAX

PHP-register.php

Here goes the error messages

JSON Output

Chrome Console:

Firefox console :

What am i missing?

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.
