Question

I am sending an AJAX request to server and retrieving a response as a json object from the server with javascript code to my android application. I know the key values of the json object(ID, name, status, etc.) but I do not know how to get their values.(100, Mark, success, etc.) I need those data for processing for some other task. Can someone please tell me how to extract data from that json object. When I use alert(http.responseText); as follows I get the json object displayed. I need to get the values out of it.

method used to receive response

http.onreadystatechange = function() { //Handler function for call back on state change.
    if(http.readyState == 4) {
        alert(http.responseText);

json object I receive

{"header": {"ID":100,"name:"Mark"},"body":{"status":"success"}}

Answer 1

You have to convert The string to an object by doing var response=JSON.parse(http.responseText);

Just treat it like any object – console.log(response['name'])
