I want to pass an object from my c# code behind to my javascript. I know that I can use
var myVar = '<%# myVar %>'
to pass variables. However, that method seems to pass everything as a string. I want an object.
Is there any way to accomplish that?
You can serialize it to JSON using the JavaScriptSerializer.
Something like:
System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer oSerializer =
new System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer();
string sJSON = oSerializer.Serialize(myVar);
Then you in your aspx code you can use:
var myVar = <%# sJSON %>;
Which will output something like:
var myVar = {"Name":"John","Age":"30","ID":"111"};
var on the oSerializer instantiation but good answer.Use JSON serialization to convert a .NET object into JS which can be deserialized into an object (or, exec'd into an object).
