Convert JSON string to Javascript array [duplicate]

Question

I have an array of arrays which I have planted in the DOM, so that I can reuse it at a later stage to transfer to the server:

[["1","aaaaaa","1"],["2","bbbbbbb","2"],["3","ccccccc","3"]]

If I would like to convert it back into a Javascript array, how would I go about doing this?

Answer 1

var obj = $.parseJSON('[["1","aaaaaa","1"],["2","bbbbbbb","2"],["3","ccccccc","3"]]')

Assuming jquery is ok to use because of tag.

Answer 2

If the browzer has the JSON object then

JSON.parse(string);

or if you have jQuery

$.parseJSON(string);

Answer 3

var array = JSON.parse(my_JSON)
