Convert JSON to string JAVASCRIPT

Question

I want my position to show as a string. Can someone give me clue on how to do this? Im just new to laravel and javascript.

public function myformAjax(Request $request)
{

    $position =Tbl_press_release_recipient::select('position')->where('country',Request::input('country'))->distinct()->get();
    return json_encode($position);
}

my ajax:

 $(document).ready(function() {
        $('#country').on('change', function() {
            var country = this.value;
            if(country){
                $.ajax({
                    url: '/member/page/press_release_email/choose_recipient_press_release/ajax',
                    type: "GET",
                    data:{country:country},
                    dataType: "json",
                    success:function(data) {


                        $('select[name="position"]').empty();
                        $.each(data, function(key, value) {
                            $('select[name="position"]').append('<option value="'+ JSON.stringify(key) +'">'+ JSON.stringify(value) +'</option>');

                        });

                    }
                });
            }else{
               alert("as23d");
            }
        });
    });

You're stringifying the value object whereas you need to access the position property of the value object:

$('select[name="position"]').append(
    $('<option>', { value : value.position, text : value.position })
);

This also creates an option element object to set the text and value, instead of concatenating the HTML which could lead to XSS vulnerabilities.

If in ajax response you get json like {key: value}, check this:

...,
success: function(repsonse) {
   $.each(repsonse, function(i, elem) {
      $('select[name="position"]').append('<option value="'+ i +'">'+ elem +'</option>');
   });
}
