problem is retreiving values from server in JSON form

Hi,i was trying to retrieve value from server in JSON format in AJAX but it is not retrieving any thing it is just showing no output

Javascript:

xhr1.open("GET", "Jsonex.aspx", true);
xhr1.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (xhr1.readyState == 4) {
document.getElementById("div1").innerHTML = "inside the function";
var jsonT = eval("(" + xhr1.responseText + ")");
var i=jsonT.somavar.abc;
document.getElementById("div1").innerHTML = "<h1>" + "hi" + "</h1>";
document.getElementById("div1").innerHTML = "<h1>" + i +"</h1>";
}

}
xhr1.send(null);

Asp.net server page:

var r = "{'somevar':{'abc':'blue','color':'red'}}";

Response.Write(r);

Right, just so long as you understand that the JSON data can be returned from a dynamic server-side script as well, you just have to use the proper ASP code to output that string. Otherwise, if it's stored in a text file, then yes by all means use the .txt extension or it the request will attempt to call it as an ASP script, not plain text.

Is there any way by which i can send the request and get response from Server side script not approaching directly to .txt file as i did above?

i believe i need to have some parser which could change the response from JSON format to string, so that i can send to client,but i couldn't find the parsers online,is thr any other way to achieve this?

Thank you

JavaScriptSerializer js = new JavaScriptSerializer();
Class1 obj = new Class1();
obj.ID = 1;
obj.Username = "aaa";
obj.date1 = "2/2/2010";
obj.msg = "Hi,How r u doing?";
string json = js.Serialize(obj);
Response.Write(json);

If i serialize this way,the data is send in string form but client is unable to deserialize back to JSON using the eval(),what can i do now?

Thank you

What is the actual output of that code?

You do realize you can simply return a string like:

{
"items": [
"item1" : { "property": "something" },
"item2" : { "property": "other thing" }
]
}


That's a valid JSON object.


You aren't required to use any specific function that creates a JSON object, just return plain text, and force a header of "Content-Type: text/javascript".

I try to send in string format but there no result,the Output is blank,what can i do now to get the required o/p

Can you provide a link?
