I have an html form that has the following structure:
<input type="text" name="title" />
<input type="text" name="persons[0].name" />
<input type="text" name="persons[0].color" />
<input type="text" name="persons[1].name" />
<input type="text" name="persons[1].color" />
I would like to serialize this into the following json:
{
"title":"titlecontent",
"persons":[
{
"name":"person0name",
"color":"red"
},
{
"name":"person1name",
"color":"blue"
}
]
}
Notice that the number of persons can vary from case to case.
The structure of the html form can change, but the structure of the submitted json can't.
How is this done the easiest?
