Question

my explorations into jquery are proving a little frustrating.

I am receiving the following Json back from the server.

{"status":"ok",
"0":{"ID":"1","location":"location info"},
"1":{"ID":"2","location":"location info"},
"2":{"ID":"3","location":"location info"},
...etc
});

I need to put all the objects except the status into an array.
I achieved this in AS3 as follows, but don’t seem to be able to get any where near using jquery.

public function ResultToArray(jsonString:String):Array
{
var jObj:Object = JSON.decode(jsonString);
var objects:Array = [];
for each(var obj:Object in jObj)
{
    if(obj is String)break;
    objects.push(obj);
}
return objects;
}

I would like to put each of the objects in an array.

The following only loops over one object.

      $(data).each(function(index)
    {
    alert(data[index]["location"])  
    });

Please pardon my ignorance.
If I could receive any advice It’d be much appreciated.

Answer 1

var o = jQuery.parseJSON(jsonString),
        myObjects = [];
for (var c in o) {
    if (c != 'status')
        myObjects.push(o[c]);
}

Possibly you could check (typeof o[c] == 'object') if you don’t want to check for ‘status’.
