using simplejson.dumps to encode a dictionary to json

[Aaron]

Hi there,

I am attempting to use simplejson.dumps to convert a dictionary to a json encoded string.

For some reason this doesn't work - it would be awesome if someone could give me a clue as to why.

loginreq = {"username":username, "password":password, "productType":"CFD_Demo"}
authreq_data = {"req":loginreq}
authreq_data = simplejson.dumps(authreq_data)

#The dictionary contains a dictionary
