I am encountering an issue with retrieving a value from PHP and passing it to Javascript. The PHP array is encoded like this :
echo json_encode($myArray);
On the Javascript side, I use the following code within the $.ajax method:
success:function (data) {
alert(data);
}
This setup works fine and alerts the returned array. However, when I attempt to assign my Javascript array to the data value like so :
success:function (data) {
myArray = data;
}
It breaks the looping process entirely. Instead of correctly printing something like:
This is a test
The output will be:
t,h,i,s,i,s,a,t,e,s,t
Additionally, the length of the array will not be accurate - for 4 words, it shows as 16+ due to the inclusion of square brackets etc. How can I reuse the json encoded array in JavaScript while maintaining its original structure?
