I want to get the data from the ViewBag.mytags to a Javascript array, but I was not able to avhice this

$(function () {

    var sampleTags = new Array();

    var array = @Html.Raw(Json.Encode(@ViewBag.mytags));

    for(var i =0; i<array.length;i++){

        sampleTags[i] = array[i];

    }  

    $('#singleFieldTags').tagit({

        availableTags: sampleTags,

        singleField: true,

        singleFieldNode: $('#mySingleField')

    });

}

This is my controller

ViewBag.mytags = mp3.TagSuggestion();

This is my Models

public IQueryable<string> TagSuggestion() 

{ 



    IQueryable<string> tabs = from s in db.tblTags select s.Title; 



    return tabs; 



}

Please follow these step

public IList<string> TagSuggestion() 

{ 

    IQueryable<string> tabs = from s in db.tblTags select s.Title; 

    return tabs.toList(); 

}

Inside MVC Contoller :

ViewBag.mytags = mp3.TagSuggestion().toList();

In view:

<script>

    $(function () {

        var sampleTags = new Array();

        var array = @Html.Raw(Json.Encode(@ViewBag.mytags));

        for(var i =0; i<array.length;i++){

            sampleTags[i] = array[i];

        }  



        $('#singleFieldTags').tagit({

            availableTags: sampleTags,

            singleField: true,

            singleFieldNode: $('#mySingleField')

        });

    });

</script>
