I need this as my json return. This data is being pulled from the DB but currently I am using static data.

 {
        "data": [
            {
                "id": 1,
                "latitude":17.3700,
                "longitude": 78.4800,
                "gallery":
                    [
                        "assets/img/items/1.jpg"
                    ]
            }
        ]
    }
I have tried this in my code behind but I am not getting the desired result.

[WebMethod]
    [ScriptMethod(UseHttpGet = true, ResponseFormat = ResponseFormat.Json)]
    public List<account>; getData()
    {
        Account account = new Account
        {
            id = 1,
            latitude = &quot;17.3700&quot;,
            longitude =&quot;78.4800&quot;,
            gallery = new List&lt;string&gt;
                  {
                    assets/img/items/1.jpg&quot;,
                     assets/img/items/2.jpg&quot;,
                  }
        };
        return new JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(account);
    }

    public class Account
    {
        public int id { get; set; }
        public string latitude { get; set; }
        public string longitude { get; set; }
        public IList<> gallery  { get; set; }
    }
Result:

{
 "id":2,
 "latitude":"17.3700",
 "longitude":"78.4800",
 "gallery":["assets/img/items/1.jpg","assets/img/items/2.jpg"]
}</account>

not sure if Im seeing this correctly

1)

public List<account>; getData()

(look at the semi-colon ';')

2) Im not sure if I like the entire way this is set up ..

public List<account>; getData()
    {
        Account account = new Account
        {
            id = 1,
            latitude = &quot;17.3700&quot;,
            longitude =&quot;78.4800&quot;,
            gallery = new List&lt;string&gt;
                  {
                    assets/img/items/1.jpg&quot;,
                     assets/img/items/2.jpg&quot;,
                  }
        };
        return new JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(account);
    }

I think what you want to be doing is something more like

C#

List<account> Accounts = new List<account>();
    // Create new Account
    // Accounts.Add(Account)
    // then comes the return JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(Accounts);
</account></account>

It looks like in your top example you are expecting a list of data, whereas you're only generating a single datum and serialising that

I could be wrong .....

[edit] whoops, Ive blown the formatting up .. sorry, hope you still get the idea[/edit]
