Hi Bear-
Thanks for the reply. We are supporting the usual suspects - IE 7+, FF.
I think I need to get up to speed on JSON. I was at a loss how to create the objects on the client side. I thought I had to physically code the syntax e.g. "[ :" etc.
But it seems I create the objects and use eval: e.g. this sample:
var arrayAsJSONText = '["Europe", "Asia", "Australia", "Antarctica",
"North America", "South America", "Africa"]';
var continents = eval( arrayAsJSONText );
alert(continents[0] + " is one of the " + continents.length + "
continents.");
or as you suggest:
alert("The JSON representation of the continents array is: " +
continents.toJSONString());
But I need objects with member variables e.g. a column object (one of our application objects) which contain various fields: width, alignment, etc. I want it to map to a pojo so I can pass it to the server and convert it to a pojo.
thanks
Max
