Blockquote With your assistance, I have successfully implemented the code above that populates a text box with a string received from a PHP file using Json_encode. However, I am facing difficulties in accessing individual elements within the string, which is an array.
The structure of the array is as follows:
[{"user_id":"2790","freelancer_name":"","order_id":"9121","orderamount":"0.00"My goal is to write a code snippet like this:
document.getElementById("_proId").value = user_id;
document.getElementById("_buyerSt").value = freelancer_name;
document.getElementById("_buyerDesc").value = order_id;
document.getElementById("_mngSt").value = orderamount;
... etc
Blockquote My issue lies in how to parse the string and extract the data contained within. Specifically, these two variables:
var result=parsedJSON.result;
var count=parsedJSON.count;
alert (""+result);
alert (""+count);
Only return 'undefined' when alerted.
I kindly seek assistance in extracting the data from the string, as the array retrieved from a MySQL table is extensive.
