    http://www.json.org/json2.js http://www.json.org/json2.js // In the third stage we use the eval function to compile the text into a // JavaScript structure. The '{' operator is subject to a syntactic ambiguity // in JavaScript: it can begin a block or an object literal. We wrap the text // in parens to eliminate the ambiguity.

      http://www.json.org/json_parse.js http://www.json.org/json_parse.js // This is a function that can parse a JSON text, producing a JavaScript // data structure. It is a simple, recursive descent parser. It does not use // eval or regular expressions, so it can be used as a model for implementing // a JSON parser in other languages.

        Yes, but even better would be to use jQuery's excellent JSONP method.
