Question

I have the JSON:

{
    "GetCommentsByPostResult": [
        {
            "CommentCreated": "\\/Date(1305736030505+0100)\\/",
            "CommentText": "Comment 1"
        },
        {
            "CommentCreated": "\\/Date(1305736030505+0100)\\/",
            "CommentText": "Comment 2"
        },
        {
            "CommentCreated": "\\/Date(1305736030505+0100)\\/",
            "CommentText": "Comment 2"
        }
    ]
}

And Im trying to iterate over it using this:

$.each(data.GetCommentsByPostResult, function (e) {
                        alert(e.CommentText);
                    });

But all im getting is 3 alert screens with ‘undefined’ in it….no idea why anyone know?

Answer 1

Because the first parameter in $.each‘s callback (when called on an array) is the index in to the array.

This should work:

$.each(data.GetCommentsByPostResult, function(index, element) {
    alert(element.CommentText);
});
