And here’s the code that I m using to fetch it and convert it to a valid json object so that my Javascript code can fetch it and parse it.

    $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `table_name` ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5") or die(mysql_error()); // fetching the latest 5 rows
    while ($result = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
        //echo "<pre>"; print_r($result); echo "</pre>";
        print (json_encode($result));
    }

but the response that I get using json_encode doesnt seem to be a valid json object!
What am I doing wrong ?

Here’s the json object that is emitted

    Your javascript probably receives something like {"id":1,...}{"id":2}{...}{...} instead of [{"id":1,...},{"id":2},{...},{...},....]

    You should collect all rows into an array, and when you have all rows then encode the rows array:

    $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `table_name` ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 5");
$rows = array();

    while ($result = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) {
        $rows[] = $result;
    }
    echo json_encode( $rows );
