How to parse this json array?

Question

I have a php file that output json array:

[{"id":407,"parentId":406,"level":null,"name":"Зал VIII"},{"id":408,"parentId":406,"level":null,"name":"Зал IV"},]

Trying this function:

var levels = '';
function parse() {
    $.get('url_to_json_file', function(data){
        $.each(data, function(key, value){
            levels += (value.id +' - '+ value.name);
        });
    });
return levels;
}

But result always undefined - undefined.

@undefined I would agree, but then why would he be getting undefined - undefined? he should be getting "" :) — user400654

try using JSON.parse() since you are using a regular .get and not .getJSON — wirey00

jQuery has a $.parseJSON() function.

Try:

$.parseJSON('[{"id":407,"parentId":406,"level":null,"name":"Зал VIII"},{"id":408,"parentId":406,"level":null,"name":"Зал IV"}]');
//Returns [Object,Object];
