explicitly accept json in ajax requests

SteveEdson · SteveEdson · commit 9569507781c6 · 2016-05-05T09:38:04.000+01:00
The ajax request is parsing the result as JSON, however this isn't being set in the headers. Firefox adds default headers for text/html, text/xml etc.

This means that some frameworks like Laravel, Umbraco etc start to automatically return the data as XML, breaking the typeahead data parsing.
