how to avoid Special characters to Create Json object in Javascript?

Question

In my Java script I'm create array and now I'm converting to Json Object using stringify method.

 <script type="text/javascript">
   var array1 = new Array();
    $.ajax({
        url : "Result",
        type : 'POST',
        data : {
            "array1" : JSON.stringify(array1),
            "globalClassId" : globalClassId
        }});
</script>

But in server side array1 parameter creating like ["1","2","3"] But we don't want extra bracket []

How to Remove this extra bracket?

If we remove this extra [] the code look like "1","2","3" , we can simple loop it.

This doesn't escape special characters such as " or ,.

Also, I don't think this adds the double quotes as shown in your expected output.

Replace

JSON.stringify(array1)

With

JSON.stringify(array1).splice(1, -1)

Keep in mind that you might as well re-add the square brackets on the server-side in order to parse the results correctly as JSON. If you're wanting to use custom logic to interpret the data, make sure to correctly handle escaped characters.

I was having the same problem, So used the following code...Hope it will suffix your requirement.

JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(request.getParameter("names"));

List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
JSONArray array = obj.getJSONArray("interests");
for(int i = 0 ; i < array.length() ; i++){

}
