Repost from the JSON-Api Thread. I would like to read a JSON File which has more layers :

Nice Api you have there i get it to work with easy json like:

		{
			"firstline": "John",
			"secline": "Doe",
			"txtcol": "colors.white",
			"backcol": "colors.blue"
		}

with

os.loadAPI("json")
str = http.get("http://www.someserver.com/").readAll()
obj = json.decode(str)
print(obj.firstline)

but with complicated json like:

{
	"monitornorth": [
		{
			"firstline": "John",
			"secline": "Doe",
			"txtcol": "colors.white",
			"backcol": "colors.blue"
		}
	]
}

os.loadAPI("json")
str = http.get("http://www.someserver.com/").readAll()
obj = json.decode(str)
print(obj.monitornorth.firstline)

obj.monitornorth.firstline is empty
What do i do wrong?

}

Take a look at that piece of JSON again. monitornorth is an array with one object in it. That object is the first thing in monitornorth, so this is how you access it:

print(obj.monitornorth[1].firstline)
