Question

In one of my webservice methods I serialized my object calling JavaScriptSerializer.serilize in c#. Now when that returns a string to my javascript I would like to be able to call the properties from the object. I tried, results.d.ID but that did not work. Here is what it returns. Thanks for any help.

 JavaScriptSerializer oSerializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
        Inventory item = Inventories.GetInventoryByID(inventoryID);
        string jsonObject = oSerializer.Serialize(item);

For example I would like to get the ID out. how would I do that?

{"d":"{\"ID\":\"589652cf-2ccd-49c1-b457-f2793a2a2424\",\"Brand\":{\"ID\":\"b728281b-cf3c-4ee0-ba3d-a3573b886b14\",\"Name\":\"Puma1\",\"ParentBrand\":null,\"BrandChildren\":{\"IsValueCreated\":false,\"Value\":[]}},\"DateAdded\":\"\\/Date(1327695794000)\\/\",\"AddedBy\":{\"ID\":\"d6e1f2e7-f8d1-4809-aadd-4cacd5c2bc43\",\"Email\":\"[e-mail]\",\"FirstName\":\"maurice\",\"MiddleInitial\":\"l\",\"LastName\":\"bachelor\",\"Address\":\"111 main st\",\"Phone\":\"2162330333\",\"IsAdmin\":true,\"DateJoined\":\"\\/Date(-62135578800000)\\/\",\"HasPurchased\":false,\"AgreeTerms\":true,\"LastPurchaseDate\":null,\"Password\":\"maurice\",\"CompanyName\":\"sneakers101\",\"AllowEmail\":false,\"PurchaseOrders\":{\"IsValueCreated\":false,\"Value\":[]}},\"LastUpdated\":\"\\/Date(1327688594000)\\/\",\"Instock\":true,\"NumberInStock\":12,\"MainPictureUrl\":\"\",\"AlternativePictureUrl\":\"\",\"ThumbNailUrl\":\"\",\"Price\":12.99,\"Like\":0,\"Discount\":1,\"ItemReleaseDate\":\"\\/Date(568011600000)\\/\",\"ItemCondition\":\"Great\",\"Size\":12,\"ItemNumber\":3,\"IsFavorite\":false,\"Details\":\"test Details\",\"Name\":\"Test\"}"}

As Inerdial said you have strange nested JSON value. If data is in format you actually want – use JSON.parse to re-parse values like:

JSON.parse(results.d).ID.
