once you have your form in a json object how do you grap values out of it? I was trying to use $.getJson() but theres no URL and I only want to find a single value from the Json

The following code will serialize for use with JSON:

(function( $ ){
$.fn.serializeJSON=function() {
var json = {};
jQuery.map($(this).serializeArray(), function(n, i){
json[n['name']] = n['value'];
});
return json;
};
})( jQuery );

Simply use as $('form').serializeJSON();

Good point. I changed it to console.log, and added a note about browser support of that function.

Regarding the example:

$('form').submit(function() {
alert($(this).serializeArray());
return false;
});

Since there is an alert() statement in the example, the sentence "This produces the following data structure" may induce to think that that is actually what you will see in the alert dialog, while it will just show "[object Object]"

How about field values such as %, $ and &?

When I try serializing these values I get an error
