Given the following HTML form:
<form id="myform">
Company: <input type="text" name="Company" value="ACME, INC."/>
First Name: <input type="text" name="Contact.FirstName" value="Daffy"/>
Last Name: <input type="text" name="Contact.LastName" value="Duck"/>
</form>
What is the best way serialize this form in javascript to a JSON object in the format:
{
Company:"ACME, INC.",
Contact:{FirstName:"Daffy", LastName:"Duck"}
}
Also note that there might be more than 1 "." sign in the field name.
