You can use jQuery to parse JSON String or alternatively, you can create a JSON Object using the javascript eval() function.

Once you have a JSON object created, you can use dot notation to traverse your json, like

var value = ResponseObject.SId.SeId.Qid;

Where the attributes from the dot notation are your JSON key in the json string.

If it's an array, then iterate it like you usually do with an array in javascript. Remember, the object can be manipulated the same way like you do in javascript, nothing changes. – Buhake Sindi Mar 08 '11 at 12:23

Use this notation: myobjet["MyAttributeName"].

for( var SId in ResponseObject ) {

    for(var SeId in ResponseObject[SId] ) {

        for(var QId in ResponseObject[SId][SeId] ) {
            var value = ResponseObject[SId][SeId][QId];
        }

    }

}

I didn't test it, but it should work.
