Lots of tweaking to make things work

Did some tweaking and maneuvering to make things work. This version
will now show a "notice received" alert box -- lots of progress! Had
to test with Java server, not Python server.

+    This file creates a global JSON object containing two methods: stringify
+    and parse.
+
+        JSON.stringify(value, replacer, space)
+            value       any JavaScript value, usually an object or array.
+
+            replacer    an optional parameter that determines how object
+                        values are stringified for objects. It can be a
+                        function or an array of strings.
+
+            space       an optional parameter that specifies the indentation
+                        of nested structures. If it is omitted, the text will
+                        be packed without extra whitespace. If it is a number,
+                        it will specify the number of spaces to indent at each
+                        level. If it is a string (such as '\t' or ' '),
+                        it contains the characters used to indent at each level.
+
+            This method produces a JSON text from a JavaScript value.
+
+            When an object value is found, if the object contains a toJSON
+            method, its toJSON method will be called and the result will be
+            stringified. A toJSON method does not serialize: it returns the
+            value represented by the name/value pair that should be serialized,
+            or undefined if nothing should be serialized. The toJSON method
+            will be passed the key associated with the value, and this will be
+            bound to the object holding the key.
+
+            For example, this would serialize Dates as ISO strings.
+
+                Date.prototype.toJSON = function (key) {
+                    function f(n) {
+                        // Format integers to have at least two digits.
+                        return n < 10 ? '0' + n : n;
+                    }
+
+                    return this.getUTCFullYear()   + '-' +
+                         f(this.getUTCMonth() + 1) + '-' +
+                         f(this.getUTCDate())      + 'T' +
+                         f(this.getUTCHours())     + ':' +
+                         f(this.getUTCMinutes())   + ':' +
+                         f(this.getUTCSeconds())   + 'Z';
+                };
+
+            You can provide an optional replacer method. It will be passed the
+            key and value of each member, with this bound to the containing
+            object. The value that is returned from your method will be
+            serialized. If your method returns undefined, then the member will
+            be excluded from the serialization.
+
+            If the replacer parameter is an array of strings, then it will be
+            used to select the members to be serialized. It filters the results
+            such that only members with keys listed in the replacer array are
+            stringified.
+
+            Values that do not have JSON representations, such as undefined or
+            functions, will not be serialized. Such values in objects will be
+            dropped; in arrays they will be replaced with null. You can use
+            a replacer function to replace those with JSON values.
+            JSON.stringify(undefined) returns undefined.
+
+            The optional space parameter produces a stringification of the
+            value that is filled with line breaks and indentation to make it
+            easier to read.
+
+            If the space parameter is a non-empty string, then that string will
+            be used for indentation. If the space parameter is a number, then
+            the indentation will be that many spaces.
+
+            Example:
+
+            text = JSON.stringify(['e', {pluribus: 'unum'}]);
+            // text is '["e",{"pluribus":"unum"}]'
+
+
+            text = JSON.stringify(['e', {pluribus: 'unum'}], null, '\t');
+            // text is '[\n\t"e",\n\t{\n\t\t"pluribus": "unum"\n\t}\n]'
+
+            text = JSON.stringify([new Date()], function (key, value) {
+                return this[key] instanceof Date ?
+                    'Date(' + this[key] + ')' : value;
+            });
+            // text is '["Date(---current time---)"]'
+
+
+        JSON.parse(text, reviver)
+            This method parses a JSON text to produce an object or array.
+            It can throw a SyntaxError exception.
+
+            The optional reviver parameter is a function that can filter and
+            transform the results. It receives each of the keys and values,
+            and its return value is used instead of the original value.
+            If it returns what it received, then the structure is not modified.
+            If it returns undefined then the member is deleted.
+
+            Example:
+
+            // Parse the text. Values that look like ISO date strings will
+            // be converted to Date objects.
+
+            myData = JSON.parse(text, function (key, value) {
+                var a;
+                if (typeof value === 'string') {
+                    a =
+/^(\d{4})-(\d{2})-(\d{2})T(\d{2}):(\d{2}):(\d{2}(?:\.\d*)?)Z$/.exec(value);
+                    if (a) {
+                        return new Date(Date.UTC(+a[1], +a[2] - 1, +a[3], +a[4],
+                            +a[5], +a[6]));
+                    }
+                }
+                return value;
+            });
+
+            myData = JSON.parse('["Date(09/09/2001)"]', function (key, value) {
+                var d;
+                if (typeof value === 'string' &&
+                        value.slice(0, 5) === 'Date(' &&

+                    d = new Date(value.slice(5, -1));
