function objectToString(o){    
    var parse = function(_o){    
        var a = [], t;  
        if(Array.isArray(_o)){
        	for(var i = 0, t; t = _o[i]; i ++){
        		a[a.length] = "{ " + arguments.callee(t).join(", ") + "}";
        	}
        } else {
	        for(var p in _o){        
	            if(_o.hasOwnProperty(p)){            
	                t = _o[p];
	                if(!t){
	                	t = '';
	                }
	                switch(typeof t){
	                	case "object":
	                		if(Array.isArray(t)){
	                			a[a.length] = "\"" + p + "\": [ " + arguments.callee(t).join(", ") + "]";
	                		} else {
	                			a[a.length] = "\"" + p + "\":{ " + arguments.callee(t).join(", ") + "}";
	                		}
