JSON is Javascript Object Notation, and is really text only. Once you
get JSON into javascript, it parses it into the object which it
defines. From that point on, you're just passing a regular object
around. There's technically no such thing as a "JSON" object.
Also, try running this code:
var listsData;
function getLists(){
$.post( 'actions.php', {action: 'managelists'}, function(data){
listsData = data.list;
debugLists();
}, 'json' )
}
function debugLists(){
$.each(listsData, function(){
alert(this.id + ': ' + this.name);
});
}
and see if that helps any?
