Parse JSON response store value in variable

Question

I'm getting the following JSON response:

"Nitro": {
    "Login": {
        "sessionKey": "NHwxNDQ4MzR8MzY1ODE5ODMwMnwxMzQ0NzE5MTYyfDgxY2M1NjYxZDBiY2NiODI4NmM2Mjc1ODI2MzA1NDY3YmVhNzJjZDR8MA=="
    },
    "res": "ok",
    "method": "user.login",
    "server": "sbnitro01.prod.bunchball.net/nitro4.4.0"
}
}

I don't understand how to parse this with JavaScript and store the value of the sessionKey in a variable. I cannot use jQuery on this project and just cannot seem to get the key with JS.

Thanks!

The object that you have provided seems to be missing an intial '{'. Is this by design or is the object larger than posted? — Robert, Jul 12 '12 at 21:29

Try:

var sessionKey = obj.Nitro.Login['sessionKey'];

This takes the object that is stored in the obj variable, then takes the Nitro property object and then takes the Login property object and extracts the property sessionKey accordingly.
