how to handle JavaScript objects with colons in key names?
- by Ethan
There is a syntax error in the following code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
Hello World!
<script type="text/javascript">
var obj = {'a:b': '1'};
alert(obj.a:b); // syntax error
</script>
</body>
</html>
So how to handle JavaScript objects with colons in key names?
I have to do this because I need to handle a feed in jsonp format from a remote server which I do not have control over, and there are colons in the key names of the returned jsonp (because the jsonp is converted from XML with namespaces in tags).
