javascript - Access elements in json object like an array










I have a json object, like the one below:




[
["Blankaholm", "Gamleby"],
["2012-10-23", "2012-10-22"],
["Blankaholm. Under natten har det varit inbrott", "E22 i med Gamleby. Singelolycka. En bilist har.],
["57.586174","16.521841"], ["57.893162","16.406090"]
]


It consists of 4 "property levels" (city, date, description and coordinates).




What I want to do is to be able to access these levels like in an array like this:



var coordinates = jsonObject[4];


This does obvious not work so my question is how can I do it?



Do I need to decode it or something, and if so how?


Answer



I found a straight forward way of solving this, with the use of JSON.parse.




Let's assume the json below is inside the variable jsontext.



[
["Blankaholm", "Gamleby"],
["2012-10-23", "2012-10-22"],
["Blankaholm. Under natten har det varit inbrott", "E22 i med Gamleby. Singelolycka. En bilist har.],
["57.586174","16.521841"], ["57.893162","16.406090"]
]



The solution is this:



var parsedData = JSON.parse(jsontext);


Now I can access the elements the following way:



var cities = parsedData[0];
