Using javascript to access a json array from php
- by celenius
I'm trying to understand how my php script can pass an array to my javascript code. Using the following php, I pass an array:
$c = array(3,2,7);
echo json_encode($c);
My javascript is as follows:
$.post("getLatLong.php", { latitude: 500000},
function(data){
arrayData = data
document.write(arrayData)
document.write(arrayData[0]);
document.write(arrayData[0]);
document.write(arrayData[0]);
});
</script>
What is printed out on screen is
[3,2,7][3,
I'm trying to understand how json_encode works - I though I would be able to pass the array to a variable, and then access it like a normal javascript array, but it views my array as one large text string. How do ensure that it reads it like an array?
