Let me rephrase my problem.
$.post('a.htm', $('#formId').serialize(), function(data) {
// data is a json string
// I don't know anything about the keys used in that json string, i.e.
that string can be
// '{"name": "James", "age": 27}' or can be '{"title": "jQuery", "year":
2009, "month": 10}'
var jsonObject = JSON.parse(data); // JSON is from
http://www.json.org/json2.js
// because the keys are unknown, I cannot write something like
jsonObject.name, jsonObject.title ...
// if the Prototype library is used, I can do like this
$H(jsonObject).each(function(item) {
log.debug(item.key + ' ' + item.value);
});
});
If the server returns '{"name": "James", "age": 27}', that block of code
should print out
name James
age 27
If the server returns '{"title": "jQuery", "year": 2009, "month": 10}', that
block of code should print
title jQuery
year 2009
month 10
Thanks for any help.
