Undefined error with jquery while trying to parse json

Question

Here is my json response:

[{"durum":"1"},{"durum":"2"},{"durum":"3"}]

My jquery function:

      $("select#durum").change(function(){
          $.post("autocomplete/ara_detay",{durum: $(this).val()}, function(j){
              var events = j; 
              var event = events[0];                  
              alert(j.length);
              alert(j.durum);
              alert(j.durum);
              var options = '';
              for (var i = 0; i < j.length; i++) {
                  options += '<option value="' + j[i].durum + '">' + j[i].durum + '</option>';
              }
              $("#durum").html(options);
          })      })

j.length alert says "43" and other alert messages says "undefined".

In which part am i doing wrong ?

have you checked in the console what was actually in j? and BTW, you can't use event as a variable name. — Joseph

j is a string

var jsonParsed = JSON.parse(j);
alert(jsonParsed[0].durum);
alert(jsonParsed[1].durum);
alert(jsonParsed[2].durum);
