JSON.parse(): unexpected character with websockets and xmpp kaazing gateway

Question

I am trying to send a message using the XmppClient.js of kaazing, but I get an : SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character. The code in javascript is :

var client = new XmppClient(...);
var txtClient = new XmppRoom(...); 

sendFromEditor : function(char){
                var json = JSON.stringify(char);
                //alert(json);
                txtClient.sendMessage(json);
            };

and I am receiving messages :

txtClient.onmessage = function(msg) {

var data = JSON.parse(msg.body);

alert(data);

The problem is in JSON.parse. The messages I am trying to send are very small (one char). I also tried to change the maximum message size of kaazing gateway just in case but with no lack!

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

I could suggest to surround it with a try catch to check the exact error.. not sure if that helps ;)
