[Solved] Trying to parse childnodes in Json

[Andreas Kviby]

Hey
I have this json Data in a string.

{
   "Contacts" :
      [
         {
            "CompanyPerson" : "Tia Bruchetta",
            "CompanyNumber" : "10001",
            "Cr" :
               [
                  {
                     "Data" : "[e-mail]",
                     "ComKod" : "7"
                  }
               ]
         },
         {
            "CompanyPerson" : "Matias Albrecht",
            "CompanyNumber" : "501167",
            "Cr" :
               [
                  {
                     "Data" : "016-137180",
                     "ComKod" : "3"
                  },
                  {
                     "Data" : "[e-mail]",
                     "ComKod" : "8"
                  }
               ]
         }
   ]
}

And now I need to parse this JSON string to extract the Data and ComKod which is a child object to the Cr node as you can see. How can I extract that information?
So far I came up with this...

for(var i=0; i < json.Contacts.length;i++) {
  var header = json.Items[i];
  var child = header.Cr[0].toString()
}

Please help me

Hello Andreas Kviby,

In order to use a JSON string you need to deserialize it first. You can use the json2 JavaScript library to do so. After you have the string correctly deserialized as a JavaScript object you can traverse it like this:

var data = JSON.parse(json);

for (var i = 0; i < data.Contacts.length; i++)
{
      var contact = data.Contacts[i];
      var child = contact.Cr[0];
      var comKod = child.ComKod;
}

I hope this helps,
