How to parse JSON data with jQuery / JavaScript?

by

I have a AJAX call that returns some JSON like this:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $.ajax({ 
        type: 'GET', 
        url: 'http://example/functions.php', 
        data: { get_param: 'value' }, 
        success: function (data) { 
            var names = data
            $('#cand').html(data);
        }
    });
});

Inside the #cand div I’ll get:

[ { "id" : "1", "name" : "test1" },
  { "id" : "2", "name" : "test2" },
  { "id" : "3", "name" : "test3" },
  { "id" : "4", "name" : "test4" },
  { "id" : "5", "name" : "test5" } ]

How can I loop through this data and place each name in a div?
