Firefox should be showing all of those extra items as well. And you are getting just an array. Looping through your data like:
for (var i = 0; i < jsonObj.length; i++) { alert(jsonObj[i]); } Will work just fine. The extra properties to the array object don't matter as long as you are treating your array like an array. If you do: for (var i in jsonObj) { alert(jsonObj[i]); } Then you will not get what you want. timo wrote: > why do my arrays have extra methods in IE? > i guess i know why.. prototype added all these prototypes to Array() > but how do a get a responseJSON that's just an array? > it's fine in firefox... can anyone help with this? > > i'm using Ajax.Request to hit a php page the returns json_encode > arrays of mysql query results. > > it's all good in firefox, i get an array; > but in IE responseSJON is an object with Array's prototypes > like this: > - transport.responseJSON {...} Object > + lastIndexOf {...} Object > + indexOf {...} Object > + toJSON {...} Object > ..... then my stuff down at the bottom.... > + each {...} Object > [0] "assesment" String > [1] "category" String > [2] "categoryquestions" String > [3] "question" String > [4] "users" String > > here's what i'm doing.... > > > the php page sets the header content type to application/json, does > the sql, then does this: > > $jsonStrArray = array(); > while ($record = mysqli_fetch_array($recordSet, MYSQL_ASSOC)) { > array_push($jsonStrArray, $record ); > } > echo json_encode($jsonStrArray); > > > it returns things like this: > [{"id":"1","categoryName":"Primero Catagory"}, > {"id":"2","categoryName":"The 2nd Catagory"}, > {"id":"3","categoryName":"Catagory Threee!!"}] > > > i'm getting the responseJSON here > > Ajax.Responders.register({ > onCreate: function() { > Ajax.activeRequestCount++; > }, > onComplete: function(request, transport, json) { > //what was the ajax requseting? > var objectName = request.parameters.objectName; > var jsonObj = transport.responseJSON; //todo:rename. > php returns > array > if (objectName != null && jsonObj != null){ > addDataObject(objectName,jsonObj); // do > something with the > result > } > var x = 0; > } > }); > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.
