JSON.stringify function

Question

I have an object that has some properties and methods, like so:

{name: \"FirstName\",
age: \"19\",
load: function () {},
uniq: 0.5233059714082628}
         


        

Answer 1

Why exactly do you want to stringify the object? JSON doesn't understand functions (and it's not supposed to). If you want to pass around objects why not do it one of the following ways?

var x = {name: "FirstName", age: "19", load: function () {alert('hai')}, uniq: 0.5233059714082628};

function y(obj) {
    obj.load();
}

// works
y({name: "FirstName", age: "19", load: function () {alert('hai')}, uniq: 0.5233059714082628});

// "safer"
y(({name: "FirstName", age: "19", load: function () {alert('hai')}, uniq: 0.5233059714082628}));

// how it's supposed to be done
y(x);
