How to use json2?

**ypsd** · 01-09-2012 10:50 AM

I have the following code. I want to convert obj to a JSON string and output it to the document. But my chrome browser doesn't show anything. If I run it in the Chrome Development Tools. The JSON string shows up. Does anybody seem what is wrong with my script? Thanks!

<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/json2/20110223/json2.js"><script/>
<script>
var obj={x:1, y:2};
var json_data = JSON.stringify(obj);
document.write('xx' + json_data + '<br/>');
</script>
</body>
</html>

Call me stupid, but isn't {x:1, y:2} already a json value? i think you want to pass an actual object and then the stingify converts it to a... well... to a string...

You know what i mean? Like if you did var b = new Object().

I don't know JSON.
It will be
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/json2/20110223/json2.js"></script>
instead of
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/json2/20110223/json2.js"><script/>

Code:

 
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/json2/20110223/json2.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var obj={x:1, y:2};
var json_data = JSON.stringify(obj);
document.write('xx' + json_data + '<br/>');  // xx{"x":1,"y":2}
</script>
</body>
</html>

Code:

  
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var obj={x:1, y:2};
var json_data = JSON.stringify(obj);
document.write('xx' + json_data + '<br/>');  // xx{"x":1,"y":2}
</script>
</body>
</html>

The output of the codes above will be:
xx{"x":1,"y":2}
in Firefox 4.0b9

In Google Chrome (v. 22.0.1) the output is xx{"x":1,"y":2} too ... the method stringfy is just to convert the object array in a string array... in some browsers you will need this convertion... but in modern browsers you dont need to do this.
