In my app, I added several arrays into a new Array object, and then post the data through AJAX. In the myHandler, I want to deserialize the data into arrays. But I got failure in the deserialization. If you know how to for deserialize such an objective, I will appreciate if you can share your knowledge.

JavaScript

var arrays = new Array();
arrays.push(ar1);   // ar1 - Array
arrays.push(ar2);   // ar2 - Array but different from ar1 in dimension
arrays.push(ar3);   // ar3 - Array, also different in dimension
$.ajax({
    async: true,
    contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
    dataType: 'json',
    type: "POST",
    data: { arrays },
    url: "myHandler.ashx",
    success: function (result) { }
});

C#

// code in myHandler.ashx
public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)  {
    context.Response.ContentType = "application/json";
    var data = context.Request;
    var sr = new StreamReader(data.InputStream);
    var stream = sr.ReadToEnd();
    var javaScriptSerializer = new System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer();
    vvar obj = javaScriptSerializer.DeserializeObject(stream);    // Got error here

Below is the value of stream:

C#

"ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=8594&ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=K02R019&ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=K02&ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=IB-K-29&ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=TRACKWAY&ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=PRIVATE&ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=BRASS+DISK&ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=&ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=38.88722&ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=-77.09436&ar%5B0%5D%5B%5D=K02&ar%5B1%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=5324&ar%5B1%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=8594&ar%5B1%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=222%2B54.45&ar%5B1%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=22254.45&ar%5B1%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=INBOUND&ar%5B1%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=&ar%5B1%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=&ar%5B1%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=POT&ar%5B2%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=8594&ar%5B2%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=8594&ar%5B2%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=K02R019&ar%5B2%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=&ar%5B2%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=SET&ar%5B2%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=5%2F30%2F1905&ar%5B2%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=DUFF&ar%5B2%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=ON+INVERT&ar%5B2%5D%5B1%5D%5B%5D=18059&ar%5B2%5D%5B1%5D%5B%5D=8594&ar%5B2%5D%5B1%5D%5B%5D=K02R019&ar%5B2%5D%5B1%5D%5B%5D=&ar%5B2%5D%5B1%5D%5B%5D=RECNORECORD&ar%5B2%5D%5B1%5D%5B%5D=&ar%5B2%5D%5B1%5D%5B%5D=&ar%5B2%5D%5B1%5D%5B%5D=null&ar%5B3%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=15015&ar%5B3%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=8594&ar%5B3%5D%5B0%5D%5B%5D=859

Why is it after all this time, you *still* think that people half way around the world can read your mind or see your screen?

Click "Improve question" and add a code block containing the JSON you're trying to deserialize, and the full error message you're getting.

The data you're posting is not valid JSON. Decoding the string reveals:

ar[0][]=8594&ar[0][]=K02R019&ar[0][]=K02&ar[0][]=IB-K-29&ar[0][]=TRACKWAY&...

That's the standard application/x-www-form-urlencoded format used to submit a form.
