How do you get and display json objects created by rails?

Question

I've seen examples of getting arrays made into json but not pure variables. I'm new to json and need a ajax /javascript function that can print out the contents of something like this:

{"name":["1"],"email":["1"],"phone":["1"],"subject":["1"],"message":["1"]}

I created a jsfiddle.net that shows you how you could do this:

The javascript is this:

var data = {
"name": ["1"],
"email": ["1"],
"phone": ["1"],
"subject": ["1"],
"message": ["1"]
}

$.each(data, function(key, value) {
    $('#test').append(key + ": " + value + "<br />");
});

which outputs:

name: 1
email: 1
phone: 1
subject: 1
message: 1
