Convert JSON string to Javascript array [duplicate]

Question

Possible Duplicate:
How can I interpret a JSON object received as a string correctly?

I have an array of arrays which I have planted in the DOM, so that I can reuse it at a later stage to transfer to the server:

[["1","aaaaaa","1"],["2","bbbbbbb","2"],["3","ccccccc","3"]]

If I would like to convert it back into a Javascript array, how would I go about doing this?

Any help appreciated...

@Diodeus: "...which I have planted in the DOM..." I'm guessing OP is showing text content that is hidden somewhere in the page.

@tereško: I don't think that's a duplicate. Seems that OP is going the other direction.

var obj = $.parseJSON('[["1","aaaaaa","1"],["2","bbbbbbb","2"],["3","ccccccc","3"]]')

Assuming jquery is ok to use because of tag.

If the browzer has the JSON object then

JSON.parse(string);

or if you have jQuery

$.parseJSON(string);
