javascript - Calling numeric JSON field-names -

i'm using simple rest api project , of data need uses numeric string top-level parent node. when attempting call in javascript, throws syntax errors.

here's json object:

{"23497400":{"id":23497400,"name":foobar,"profileiconid":627,"revisiondate":1431385425000}}

and here's i'm throwing error:

var myarr = json.parse(xmlhttp.responsetext); var name1 = myarr.23497400.name; 

there's terribly simple i'm missing, right?

you need use bracket notation if key not valid identifier name.

var name1 = myarr['23497400'].name; 

when use dot notation,

property must valid javascript identifier, i.e. sequence of alphanumerical characters, including underscore ("_") , dollar sign ("$"), cannot start number. example, object.$1 valid, while object.1 not.
