Creating a JSON feed using PHP For Use With JQuery
<p><strong>Edit:</strong>
Solved using the below suggestion of removing:<code>echo '{"results":'.json_encode($arr).'}';</code> 
and replacing with <code>echo json_encode($arr);</code> </p>

<p>This combined with replacing these lines: </p>

<pre><code>var items = [];
        $.each(data, function(key, val) {
            $.each(val, function(key, val)
            {
                    //Test insert into box using customer number
                $("#chatbox").html(val.number);
            });
        });
</code></pre>

<p>with </p>

<pre><code>$.each(data, function(key, val) {
$("#chatbox").html(this.number);
});
</code></pre>

<p>Made it work, I can now access the object data using the <code>this</code> followed by the property I want.</p>

<p><strong>End Edit</strong></p>

<p>Hi could anyone help me with these JSON feed. I am almost there with it (I think) however whenever I put this feed into JQuery it is picked us as a string rather than as an array of JSON objects and I can't figure out why.</p>

<p><strong>The PHP to create the feed:</strong></p>

<pre><code>&lt;?php
session_start();

include 'connect.php';

    $number = $_SESSION['number'];

    $query = "SELECT * FROM $tableName WHERE number='$number'";

    $result = mysql_query($query, $sqlCon);

    $arr = array();
    while($obj = mysql_fetch_object($result)) {
        $arr[] = $obj;
    }

    if (count($arr) == 0)
    {
        echo "Your reference number is: $number";
    } else {
        echo '{"results":'.json_encode($arr).'}';
    }
?&gt;
</code></pre>

<p><strong>The returned JSON looks like this:</strong></p>

<pre><code>{"results":[{"id":"40","number":"466741","message":"dsfdsv","date":"2011-10-05","time":"00:28:32"},{"id":"41","number":"466741","message":"sacsac","date":"2011-10-05","time":"00:30:17"}]}
</code></pre>

<p><strong>What I instead want is:</strong></p>

<pre><code>[{"id":"40","number":"466741","message":"dsfdsv","date":"2011-10-05","time":"00:28:32"},{"id":"41","number":"466741","message":"sacsac","date":"2011-10-05","time":"00:30:17"}]
</code></pre>

<p>Or a return value which would allow me to iterate over the objects.</p>

<p><strong>The JQuery I'm reading it with:</strong></p>

<pre><code>$.getJSON('get.php', function(data) {

var items = [];
    $.each(data, function(key, val) {
        $.each(val, function(key, val)
        {
                //Test insert into box using customer number
            $("#chatbox").html(val.number);
        });
    });
});
</code></pre>

<p>I'm guessing my problem is the way in which I'm creating the JSON feed but I'm just stuck and cant figure out how to fix it.</p>

<p>Any help would be appreciated, thanks.</p>
