Use JSON in ASP.NET

What is JSON?

• JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation
• JSON is lightweight text-data interchange format
• JSON is language independent *
• JSON is "self-describing" and easy to understand

JSON - Evaluates to JavaScript Objects

The JSON text format is syntactically identical to the code for creating JavaScript objects.
Because of this similarity, instead of using a parser, a JavaScript program can use the built-in eval() function and execute JSON data to produce native JavaScript objects.

JSON Example

{
"employees": [
{ "firstName":"John" , "lastName":"Doe" },
{ "firstName":"Anna" , "lastName":"Smith" },
{ "firstName":"Peter" , "lastName":"Jones" }
]
}
