Like you saw , i have jquery (ajax) command that give me json variable .
Let’s said that I have another variable called “rank” .
“rank” is the key of the json .
The json is :

{"Recruit":"1",
"Private":"2",
"Private*":"3",
"Private**":"4",
"Private***":"5",
"Corporal":"6",
"Corporal*":"7",
"Corporal**":"8",
"Corporal***":"9"}

how can i use “rank” in json , because that won’t work :

data.rank

If you didn’t understand yet , here is how i can do it in mirc :

$json(jsonvariable,rankvariable)

Answer 1

Use data[rank] instead of data.rank
