Convert json to a string using jquery
- by becomingGuru
I have a nested json. I want to post it as a form input value.
But, seems like jquery puts "Object object" string into the value.
It seems easier to pass around the string and convert into the native form I need, than dealing with json as I don't need to change anything once it is generated.
What is the simplest way to convert a json
var json = {
"firstName": "John",
"lastName": "Smith",
"age": 25,
"address": {
"streetAddress": "21 2nd Street",
"city": "New York",
"state": "NY",
"postalCode": "10021"
},
"phoneNumber": [
{ "type": "home", "number": "212 555-1234" },
{ "type": "fax", "number": "646 555-4567" }
],
"newSubscription": false,
"companyName": null
};
into its string form?
var json = '{
"firstName": "John",
"lastName": "Smith",
"age": 25,
"address": {
"streetAddress": "21 2nd Street",
"city": "New York",
"state": "NY",
"postalCode": "10021"
},
"phoneNumber": [
{ "type": "home", "number": "212 555-1234" },
{ "type": "fax", "number": "646 555-4567" }
],
"newSubscription": false,
"companyName": null
}'
Following doesn't do what I need:
Json.stringify()
