Access first JSON element

2 New Member
Hello,

I'm having troubles with parsing my JSON object. Below you'll find my JSON string:

{"email":{"inva lid":"wrong email"}}

I can get 'wrong email' using javascript by simply executing alert(email.inv alid). However, the first element, in this case 'invalid', hasn't always got the same name, so I'm looking for an alert(email.fir stChild) kind of code.

I always want to get the value of the first element in my JSON object 'email'.

Can somebody please help me?

Thanks in advance,

Dimitri

Sorry, already solved it. Like in other languages, javascript 'for each' did the trick. I didn't know that existed actually!

While I've done javascript work for as long as I can remember (since Netscape first released it), I've only ever used it for trivial things, change a color here, validate a text element there, blah blah blah. With Ajax (actually, the uncovering of the XmlHTTPRequest object) I absolutely see the benefit of moving more of the UI work to the client, rather than doing page refreshes. I know there are a bunch of libraries out there...

Thats why im want to use an XML file (later i will...

Very few samples use Json at all and almost none show the server code. So does anybody know a sample which - uses just a small javascript...

I've been pretty infatuated with JSON for some time now since "discovering" it a while back. (It's been there all along in JavaScript, but it was just never "noticed" or used by most until recently -- or maybe I should just speak for myself.) The fact that JSON is more elegant goes without saying, yet I can't seem to find a way to use JSON the way I *really* want to use it: to create objects that can be instantated into multiple...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
