@object.attributes.to_json

Each ‘attributes’ key constitutes a separate hash object with its own index (i.e. 0, 1, etc.). So to access the value of ‘title’ as in my previous post you would do this (in js of course):

var myObj = myJsonCallback(json_response);
alert(myObj[0].attributes.title);

Which will return the value “My first story” or whatever.

My main problem now is that when I use to_json on a collection object (i.e. @foo.to_json) the output includes a ‘attributes’ key for each record of data which makes it difficult for me to work with in Javascript when using a callback.

Like this:

list([{"attributes": {"title": "Here is my new story"}}, {"attributes": {"title": "I love this stuff!"}}, {"attributes": {"title": "Here is another story"}}])

I can’t figure out how to

A) remove the attributes key from the collection hash -or-
B) how to access the data I want around the repeated attributes values (i.e. title).

Any clue?

Thanks,
