parsing JSON data

Question

I am getting this response in $.ajax success method.

{\"ID\":18,"TSName":"testSuit"}

How can I parse it like

success: function (response) {
 var tr = response.d;
 alert(tr.TSName);

• Felix Kling: Are you generating the JSON string? If so, how?

Answer 1

Check out the dataType option of jQuery's .ajax call. If you specify JSON, jQuery will parse it for you in to the object you're looking for.

Alternatively, you can pass the data to .parseJSON and you will get a JSON object back.

Answer 2

test this:

$.getJSON('yoururl', function(data) {
 ...
});
