Question

I am parsing a JSON file using C#. Here is what I got from the server:

loadData([ 
{"id":"id1","nm":"name1"}, 
{"id":"id2","nm":"name2"}, 
{"id":"id3","nm":"name3"}
]);

This is not the entire string, as I have deleted some of the values to make it appear more straightforward.

As you can see, this JSON is not parseable because it ends with semicolon (;) and has a bunch of other issues which need to be fixed.

Now that I have this data, is there any workaround I can do on the client side to parse this JSON?

Answer 1

The server gave you more than the JSON file. It gave you loadData(jsonData); with jsonData looking like this :

[ 
    {"id":"id1","nm":"name1"}, 
    {"id":"id2","nm":"name2"}, 
    {"id":"id3","nm":"name3"}
]

So you will have to parse this to extract the JSON file.
