and am using following code to store "Location value to an array inside javascript but its not storing.When i print that array using alert the alert is not showing .

the result of data in following code is my JSON itself.

for (i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
   alert(data[i]['id']);
   var loc = data[i]['Location'].split(',');
   alert(loc); //not printing
}

when i print alert(data.length) value is 469.

your data is a json string, you need to parse it into json object.

do this

obj = JSON.parse(data);

for (i = 0; i < obj.length; i++) {
    alert(obj[i]['id']);
    var loc = obj[i]['Location'].split(',');
    alert(loc); //not printing
}

+1, but a nitpick: JavaScript does not have JSON objects. It has JS objects, and strings with JSON values. :)

You need to parse your data.

data = JSON.parse(data)
