how to execute ajax output script

Question

I\'m getting an ajax output success data.

Where the data contains some html text and a script.

But the script is not executing, how can I execute the script.

Answer 1

Using jQuery here is a simple bit of code:

$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "getData.asmx/HelloWorld",
    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
    dataType: "json",
    success: function(result) {
        alert(result);
    }
});

But, to actually use the results of the variable result I ended up using a javascript library, from http://www.json.org/js.html, I did:

success: function(result) {
    var myData = JSON.parse(result.d);

There are probably better approaches, but this was simple, and worked for me, so I just use this. Later, when the project is in production I may go back and clean this up, but that is after I get everything working.
