Asp.net and Jquery return data bug

Question

I have Jquery code behaves weirdly. I am doing a complex task but I am almost done with it. Only problem I have is I am trigering a webmethod in C# which works perfectly. That webmethod returns a string value. I am trying to set a cookie with that returned value but it displays [object Object]. How can I display the returned value properly.

$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "InsertPost.aspx/insert_post_new_category",
data: "{'CategoryName':'" + user_cat + "','CategoryDescription':''}",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function (data, status) {
    if (user_cat.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g, '') != '') {
        $("#demo-input-facebook-theme").tokenInput("add", { name: user_cat, id: data });
        $.session.set(encodeURIComponent('Kat_' + user_cat + '_x'), data);
    }
}

});

I am having problem with "data" above. that displays [object Object]. How can I fix this

you used {dataType: "json"} (in your options to $.ajax()) , because of that to access the value by using data.d instead of only data

@Borsel - data repsent json object and to get value of it you need to write data.d so is value of the object return by you..you can check jquery ajax function that will give you more clear idea

That is because data is an object. Try using the correct property of the object data
