Question

I’m using JSON.js provided in JSON.org

<%
JSONReturn = GetDistance(Sample) // return a string in JSON format (Arcgis server Solve route function)

JSONObject = JSON.parse(JSONReturn,"Total_Length")
%>

I’m trying to get the “total_length” data in the JSON object. May I know how can I retrieve it?

GetDistance Return this

{
  "routes" : {"spatialReference" : {
      "wkid" : 4326
    }, 

    "features" : [
      {
        "attributes" : {
          "ObjectID" : 1, 
          "Name" : "Location 1 - Location 2", 
          "FirstStopID" : 1, 
          "LastStopID" : 2, 
          "StopCount" : 2, 
          "Total_Length" : 0.498263273388147, 
          "Shape_Length" : 0
        }, 
        "geometry" : null
      }
    ]
  }, 
  "messages" : [
  ]

}
