How can i parse json string without the opening and closing string quotes?

How can i parse the fol开发者_开发知识库lowing json string without the opening and closing quotes? Its seems like javascript JSON.parse function is parsing the string with the quotes! hence throws a syntax error.

This is my string;

"[
    {
        "pk": 1,
        "model": "pms.category",
        "fields": {
            "name": "Rent",
            "add_date": "2011-07-28 01:33:21",
            "agent": 3,
            "category_type": "I",
            "add_user": 3,
            "desc": "Rent"
        }
    },
    {
        "pk": 2,
        "model": "pms.category",
        "fields": {
            "name": "Deposit Rent",
            "add_date": "2011-07-28 01:33:21",
            "agent": 3,
            "category_type": "I",
            "add_user": 3,
            "desc": "Rent Deposit"
        }
    }
]"

Edit: Something interesting is that when i run this string of my development machine, it is parsed correctly, but on the production server it fails.

Replace the opening and closing quotes, and then parse the string:

s = s.replace(/^"|"$/g, '');
var jsonDoc = JSON.parse(s);

Additionally, file a bug report with the author of the program or library that emits malformed JSON.

you should probably remove the outer quotes from your string...

mystring = mystring.replace(/^"|"$/g,'')

1.This should be your JSON format otherwise, it WILL NOT be parsed properly by JSON.parse

[
        {
            "pk": 1,
            "model": "pms.category",
            "fields": {
                "name": "Rent",
                "add_date": "2011-07-28 01:33:21",
                "agent": 3,
                "category_type": "I",
                "add_user": 3,
                "desc": "Rent"
            }
        },
        {
            "pk": 2,
            "model": "pms.category",
            "fields": {
                "name": "Deposit Rent",
                "add_date": "2011-07-28 01:33:21",
                "agent": 3,
                "category_type": "I",
                "add_user": 3,
                "desc": "Rent Deposit"
            }
        }
    ]

2.Include json2.js from the github repository inbetween your head tags.
