Question

I am trying to parse some very basic JSON, but I don’t know where I’m going wrong when trying to display it to the screen.

Am I not GRABBING the data correctly, such as, “data.re1Code”?
I hope someone can shed some light onto my basic question sorry.

JSON Data

[
    {
        "rep1FullName": "Justin Giesbrecht",
        "rep1Code": "dc",
    }
]

Javascript

$.ajax({
  type: "GET",
  url: "testJSONData.php",
  dataType: "json",
  success: function(data) {

  $("#output").append(data.rep1FullName);

},
  error: function () { alert("Error"); }
}); // End of generated json 

Answer 1

The brackets [] make data a JSON array with your object as the 0th element so to get “Justin Giesbrecht” use the code: $("#output").append(data[0].rep1FullName); or remove the brackets and make the JSON:

{
        "rep1FullName": "Justin Giesbrecht",
        "rep1Code": "dc",
    }
