Params to JSON

Published in: JavaScript 

URL: http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss@jquery.com/msg20107.html

I found this neat little utility that will convert an array into JSON


Plain TextExpand 
  1. function params2json(d) {
  2.     if (d.constructor != Array) {
  3.         return d;
  4.     }
  5.     var data={};
  6.     for(var i=0;i<d.length;i++) {
  7.         if (typeof data[d[i].name] != 'undefined') {
  8.             if (data[d[i].name].constructor!= Array) {
  9.                 data[d[i].name]=[data[d[i].name],d[i].value];
  10.             } else {
  11.                 data[d[i].name].push(d[i].value);
  12.             }
  13.         } else {
  14.             data[d[i].name]=d[i].value;
  15.         }
  16.     }
  17.     return data;
  18. };
