Hello Peer,

Sure it can be done ... have a look at JSON.stringify() at
http://www.json.org/js.html, this will turn the Javascript object into JSON
text.

On the server-side you need to use JSONTokener and JSONObject see
http://www.json.org/java/index.html to convert back to a Java object

If you need more help let me know

Regards

Toby
