Ok nevermind I figured it out. So the html file should just contain "myfunction({"json":"object"})" and the html page catching should have $.getJSON("http://www.simplifieddesign.biz/jsonTest.html? myfunction=?");
function myfunction(data){ alert(data.json); // displays "object" } Make sure you have "?yourFunctionName=? where yourFunctionName is the name of the sending html files javascript function name. That was my problem. Thanks On Jul 9, 3:48 pm, Wes Duff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello, > I have read over almost every post in this group and still cannot > figure this out.
