json - Google Geocoding Result into MVC Controller -

i utilizing javascript api v3. geocoding address follows:

geocoder.geocode({ 'address': address }, function (results, status) {     //get results array here } 

this working successfully. need pass json mvc controller. have seen numerous ways this, cannot working geocode result.

from haack: (i have collection on objects duplicate structure of result. @ outermost object being result[] (see below)).

geocoder.geocode({ 'address': address }, function (results, status) {     var jsont = json.stringify(results);                $.ajax({         url: '/ctrl/action',         type: "post",         datatype: 'json',         data: jsont,         contenttype: "application/json; charset=utf-8",         success: function (result) {             alert(result.result);         }     }); } 

the controller method fires, value null.

    [httppost]     public actionresult action(googlegeocoderesponse georesponse)     {         //georesponse null         return view();     } 

my google class(s)

[serializable] public class googlegeocoderesponse {     //public string status { get; set; }     public results[] results { get; set; }  } [serializable] public class results {     public string[] types { get; set; }     public string formatted_address { get; set; }     public address_component[] address_components { get; set; }     public geometry geometry { get; set; }     public string partial_match { get; set; } } [serializable] public class address_component {     public string[] types { get; set; }     public string long_name { get; set; }     public string short_name { get; set; } } [serializable] public class geometry {     public location location { get; set; }     public string location_type { get; set; }     public viewport viewport { get; set; }     public bounds bounds { get; set; } } [serializable] public class location {     public string lat { get; set; }     public string lng { get; set; } } [serializable] public class viewport {     public southwest southwest { get; set; }     public northeast northeast { get; set; } } [serializable] public class bounds {     public southwest southwest { get; set; }     public northeast northeast { get; set; } } [serializable] public class southwest {     public string lat { get; set; }     public string lng { get; set; } } [serializable] public class northeast {     public string lat { get; set; }     public string lng { get; set; } } 

assuming have added json value provider factory in application_start:

valueproviderfactories.factories.add(new jsonvalueproviderfactory()); 

and actual json request matches view model signature:

{ georesponse: {      results: [          { types: [ 't1', 't2' ], formatted_address: 'abc', ... },          { types: [ 't3', 't4' ], formatted_address: 'def', ... },          ...     ] }  } 

you should view model in controller action. don't need decorate models [serializable] that's not used xml , json serializers. it's used binary serialization.
