The JSON part of your server response looks fine if you take out the two
line breaks - I assume those are just an artifact of posting with Outlook,
and your actual JSON response is all on one line.
But why does it have the HTML content repeated after the last } that closes
the JSON data? You don't want that.
Also:
> Is response.html saying to display it as html?
No! response.html says "take the object named 'response' and give me its
property named 'html'." It has nothing to do with displaying anything or
specifying its format.
Here, let's take your JSON output and paste it into www.jsonlint.com so it's
easier to read:
{
"data": {
"title": "",
"year_rec": {
"year": "2010"
},
"description": "",
"id": "0936d6115e4",
"profile_id": "4b40eea7-2608-4a3b-9c24-7cb04adcd75b"
},
"status": true,
"html": "<p>this is a good test<\/p>\r\n"
}
You see, it's an object with three properties, named 'data', 'status', and
'html'. The 'data' property is itself an object with properties of its own.
So if you have a variable named 'response' (as in Ibatex's example), then
you can get to these various properties like so:
response.html (the HTML code)
response.data.id (the id)
response.data.year_rec.year (the year)
What you do with those is then up to you, as in Ibatex's earlier example.
BTW do you have the Fiddler debugging proxy server and its JSON plugin (and
standalone JSON viewer)? For the work you're doing now, you *need* these.
