Question

I want to parse json retrieved from url in jsp. My url is giving response in json format and now i want to call it in my html page.

My url is giving response as

{"status":1,"msg":"List of Rooms","id":["1","2","3"],"name":["php","Java","myroom4"]}

I am not able to understand what is going wrong.

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">

    $.get('http:....', function(data, textStatus) {
        alert('Status is '+textStatus);
        alert('JSON data string is: '+data);

        var myJson = JSON.parse(data);
        var myJson = JSON.parse(textStatus);
        var myJsonObj = jsonParse(myJson);

        alert(myJsonObj.msg); 


        }, 'text');

</script>

My url is giving response as

{"status":1,"msg":"List of Rooms","id":["1","2","3"],"name":["php","Java","myroom4"]}

Answer 1

no need of parsing(JSON.parse)..you can directly say data.msg to get the required response as ajax responses can be directly in the form of JSON objects…

if its not two dimensional

$.getJSON(
          "http....url",
          function(data){

              alert(data.msg);

              });

this should work for you. Tested it here.
