[erlang-questions] javascript . notation to fetch objects from JSON decode_string/1

[Matthew Williamson]

Try out the mochiweb json module. It's at
http://code.google.com/p/mochiweb/source/browse/trunk/src/mochijson.erl. I
think all you need to do is call mochijson:decode(JSON) and you get a native
erlang data structure.
