Hello,

I am making an Ajax call and calling a controller with the json data I need 
to process in the controller.

The problem I am having (and I am sure the answer will be simple and I will 
hate myself for the silly question ) is that if I select 
request.vars.input, its value is not a json object anymore so a loads 
method will fail. It is a string object and if I try to eval(it) I get an 
error. So even when the data is right there I can not use it in the 
controller. 
Any ideas will be more than welcome!

(The controller and its print outs are shown bellow.)

Thanks,
Clara

def test():
    print "test called"
    print "test called"
    print  'request.vars'
    print request.vars
    print  'request.vars.input'

Here is what the controller prints out:

test called
request.vars
<Storage {'input': '[{"the_owner":1,"category":1,"name":"La marcha del 
oro","price":44.45,"id":1,"quantity":100},{"the_owner":3,"c
ategory":3,"name":"Toy 
Story","price":34.56,"id":2,"quantity":23},{"the_owner":2,"category":2,"name":"La
 
Sirenita","price":56.67,"
id":3,"quantity":10},{"the_owner":null,"category":null,"name":null,"price":null,"id":null,"quantity":null}]'}>
request.vars.input
[{"the_owner":1,"category":1,"name":"La marcha del 
oro","price":44.45,"id":1,"quantity":100},{"the_owner":3,"category":3,"name":"T
