How To Serialize Objects
Jul 3, 2005
I have a data structure that is composed of an array of JavaScript objects (my own created classes) that I need to pass as a parameter to an URL:
I would like to know if there is a way to serialize this array, send it as a string, then deserialize it on the other side, resulting with the data structure again I am trying to avoid doing the serialization myself.
Each entry in the array holds an object of type Person:
function Person(name, age, children) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
this.children = children;
}
where children is an array of Person objects
Is this sort of thing possible?

I basically want to be able to store and retrieve a tree structure in
greasemonkey. Unfortunately the GM_setValue and GM_getValue functions
only take string key value pairs. Is there a native javascript function
that will serialize the object so that it can be stored and retrieved
as strings?

.serialize() does not descend into anything other than a form to find inputs, and so to serialize inputs that are not in a form you must specify a selector that grabs each input. I just want to make sure I haven't erred.
//Standard usage
$('form').serialize(); //looks for all the named input elements that are inside the element, serializes them
//Without a form
$('someDivOrTrOrOtherElementNotAnInput').serialize(); //does not serialize any inputs that are inside the element

Is there a way in Javascript or Jquery to return an array of all objects underneath a certain point, ie. the mouse position. Basically, I have a series of images which link to various web pages but I have a large semi transparent image positioned over the top of the other images. I want to find the href of the background image that the mouse pointer clicks over.

I have an array in a Javascript/jQuery code, and I want to pass it to a php file. It has an arbitrary number of elements in it. So I figured I would use $.post, HOWEVER, I'm sure how I would convert my array into a suitable data-string? $.post("test.php", data); << what should data be when I want to pass an entire array? I looked around a bit on Google and I found the function serialize which seems to do what I want. But it only works on forms and not on arrays...

I need to write some object to SQLite database. In order to do that I need to serialize this object first.. It has many fields and some fields are objects with some fields by themselves.
I have read how to serialize with JSON but it doesn't work for me..
This is what I have done:
Code:
I get the beginning of the selection I made in expStartNode.
At this point I have expStartNode having an object I want to serialize.
Now JSON claims to do this in order to serialize:
Code:
But what I get in p1 is empty brackets...

recently I've updated jQuery from 1.3.2 to 1.4.2 and the serialize of elements where the user can set the order just stopped working. As I googled this, I found out, that the serialization was changed in 1.4.2, but I couldn't find any example that shows how to serialize in 1.4.2 and sen the data to php where the order is saved.
Here's my code that worked perfectly in 1.3.2:
$("#list").sortable({
axis: 'y',
handle : '.handle',
[Code].....
In jQuery documentation I found out, that you can set it back to the traditional serialization, but where can I set that. How can I get this code to work again normally?

I'm using $("form").serialize(), and then doing an AJAX request.JQuery automatically replaces spaces with the + character.(I couple replace the + character with a space on the server side, butI want the users to be able to enter the + character when they submit
forms.)

I have a form with an id "modClassForm" when I try:$("#modClassForm").serialize() it returns an empty string ("") When I get the action attribute it's right so it is the form I was expecting. When I do the following:
$("#modClassForm input").val()
it returns "retret" (the contents of the input element in that form). So what is doing this? The only thing I can think of is that this form is loaded from ajax and then placed in the page using the .html(htmlString) method which is rather core to my design. This works in a whole lot of other browsers (IE 9, FF 6-8, Chrome 13-15 and Safari 5). So I know I could try to serialize the fields myself, but the form content has two modes and I'd have to construct a fairly large string and I'm not sure about encoding. Is there any other way to make serialize work? Some way to get it to recognize the contents of the form?
