Answer 1

What is your error written in the message about it:

Unexpected token p in JSON at position 0 at JSON.parse

It says that the zero (which means the very first in a row) character for the json parser turned out to be unexpected. Its value is "p" - this is indicated right there in this message. Now look at what you have as the first character in your supposedly JSON:

parseResults({"response":{"Header":

What a surprise! It's the letter "p"!
You are trying to parse something that is not JSON. A document of this format cannot begin like this.
