It appears to contain several objects, but they're not contained within an outer object or an array. If you want a list of data objects, you need to put [] round them. If you want them to be dictionary elements, you need to wrap them with {} and put identifiers in. If you want a single dictionary, you need to remove most of the { and }. In addition, one of the objects doesn't appear to be terminated. {"AVName":"Tamer","ANName":"Higazi","AAnschrift":"Bauerngasse","AHausnr":"1","APLZ":"55116","AOrt":"Mainz"}, {"KontaktTel":["01234","11223344"] ** missing '}' ??? ** , {"ZahlungsArt":"0"}, {"ZugangsDaten":["tamer.hig...@nomail.com","mypass"]} Depending how I "correct" the json string, I can create different values for rsx: (1) a list of 4 dictionaries: $ ./jsonerr.py [{u'APLZ': u'55116', u'ANName': u'Higazi', u'AHausnr': u'1', u'AVName': u'Tamer', u'AAnschrift': u'Bauerngasse', u'AOrt': u'Mainz'}, {u'KontaktTel': [u'01234', u'11223344']}, {u'ZahlungsArt': u'0'}, {u'ZugangsDaten': [u'tamer.hig...@nomail.com', u'mypass']}] (2) a single dictionary: $ ./jsonerr.py {u'APLZ': u'55116', u'KontaktTel': [u'01234', u'11223344'], u'ZugangsDaten': [u'tamer.hig...@nomail.com', u'mypass'], u'ANName': u'Higazi', u'AHausnr': u'1', u'AVName': u'Tamer', u'AAnschrift': u'Bauerngasse', u'AOrt': u'Mainz', u'ZahlungsArt': u'0'} (3) an object with 4 subsidiary objects: $ ./jsonerr.py {u'Misc data': {u'ZahlungsArt': u'0'}, u'Name and Addr': {u'APLZ': u'55116', u'ANName': u'Higazi', u'AHausnr': u'1', u'AVName': u'Tamer', u'AAnschrift': u'Bauerngasse', u'AOrt': u'Mainz'}, u'Login info': {u'ZugangsDaten': [u'tamer.hig...@nomail.com', u'mypass']}, u'Telephones': {u'KontaktTel': [u'01234', u'11223344']}} but I have no way of knowing which it is you require. -- Denis McMahon, denismfmcma...@gmail.com -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
