Convert JSON string to array of JSON objects in Javascript

Question

I would like to convert this string

{\"id\":1,\"name\":\"Test1\"},{\"id\":2,\"name\":\"Test2\"}

to array of 2 JSON objects. How should I do

Answer 1

As Luca indicated, add extra [] to your string and use the code below:

var myObject = eval('(' + myJSONtext + ')');

to test it you can use the snippet below.

var s =" [{'id':1,'name':'Test1'},{'id':2,'name':'Test2'}]";
var myObject = eval('(' + s + ')');
for (i in myObject)
{
   alert(myObject[i]["name"]);
}

hope it helps..
