Remove variable name from JSON data in ASP.NET MVC

Question

I'm trying to send a string of JSON to the client from a database for a JavaScript plugin to highlight the states it gets back. However, in addition to the state information I need, I'm also getting the variable name. Is there anyway I can correct the formatting so that instead of it looking like this:

{"statesHighilght":["California","Washington","Utah","Utah","Florida","Kansas","Utah"]}

I get this:

["California","Washington","Utah","Utah","Florida","Kansas","Utah"]

This is what my controller code looks like:

public ActionResult highlight()
{
    var statesHighlight =
        db.Jobs
            .Select(r => r.State);
    return Json(new { statesHighilght }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

Answer 1

将可枚举直接传递给Json方法，而不是将其包装在匿名对象中。

return Json(statesHighlight, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
