I have a function that will get a JSON array with objects. In the function I will be able to loop through the array, access a property and use that property. Like this:
Variable that I will pass to the function will look like this:
[{
"id": 28,
"Title": "Sweden"
}, {
"id": 56,
"Title": "USA"
}, {
"id": 89,
"Title": "England"
}]
function test(myJSON) {
// maybe parse my the JSON variable?
// and then I want to loop through it and access my IDs and my titles
}
Any suggestions how I can solve it?

This isn't a single JSON object. You have an array of JSON objects. You need to loop over array first and then access each object. Maybe the following kickoff example is helpful:
var arrayOfObjects = [{
"id": 28,
"Title": "Sweden"
}, {
"id": 56,
"Title": "USA"
}, {
"id": 89,
"Title": "England"
}];
for (var i = 0; i < arrayOfObjects.length; i++) {
var object = arrayOfObjects[i];
for (var property in object) {
alert('item ' + i + ': ' + property + '=' + object[property]);
}
// If property names are known beforehand, you can also just do e.g.
// alert(object.id + ',' + object.Title);
}
If the array of JSON objects is actually passed in as a plain vanilla string, then you would indeed need eval()
here.
var string = '[{"id":28,"Title":"Sweden"}, {"id":56,"Title":"USA"}, {"id":89,"Title":"England"}]';
var arrayOfObjects = eval(string);
// ...
