Question

I want to link to a JSON object with $.ajax({ url: ....

For starters, i dont know how to make the object. Defining it with javascript? Something like var myObject = { 'color' : 'blue' }; and then saving it in to an .html file and adding to the url?

Thanks

Yes, you can do what you are asking, but the file with the json data should just have this (later I will call it json.html):

{ 'color' : 'blue' }

and the jQuery on your other page should be:

$.ajax({ 
    url: 'json.html',
    dateType: 'json'
    success: function ( data ) {
        // data is an object you can manipulate
    }
})
