Converting JavaScript object with numeric keys into array

Question

I have an object like this coming back as a JSON response from the server:

{\"0\":\"1\",\"1\":\"2\",\"2\":\"3\",\"3\":\"4\"}

I want to conv

Answer 1

Assuming your have a value like the following

var obj = {"0":"1","1":"2","2":"3","3":"4"};

Then you can turn this into a javascript array using the following

var arr = [];
json = JSON.stringify(eval('(' + obj + ')')); //convert to json string
arr = $.parseJSON(json); //convert to javascript array

This works for converting json into multi-diminsional javascript arrays as well.

None of the other methods on this page seemed to work completely for me when working with php json-encoded strings except the method I am mentioning herein.
