Answer 1

You can use for-in construct in pure Javascript. Of course, you need to be careful that you're only looking at the object's own properties (libraries like Prototype tend to pollute):

for(var key in response) {
    if(response.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
       ...
    }
}

EDIT

Are you using jQuery.ajax? What's the dataType value? It should be json. This might be why your response is being interpreted as a string. Also, when you console.log response, does it show up as a string or an object?
