Question

I have an array $lines in php. Currently I want to assign the $lines value to a javascript variable(i.e. chartLines).

The way I assigned the php array to javascript is not correct.

Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance!

<?php
    $line1 = array(array("08:00","20"),array("08:00","16"),array("08:00","19"),array("08:00","17"));

    $line2 = array(array("08:00","45"),array("08:00","47"),array("08:00","49"),array("08:00","47"));

    $lines= array($line1,$line2);  
?>


 <script type="text/javascript">
    $(function () {

        var chartLines = <?php echo $lines; ?>  

                });

Try this way:

<?php
    $line1 = array(array("08:00","20"),array("08:00","16"),array("08:00","19"),array("08:00","17"));

    $line2 = array(array("08:00","45"),array("08:00","47"),array("08:00","49"),array("08:00","47"));

    $lines= array($line1,$line2);  
    $json = json_encode($lines);
?>

 <script type="text/javascript">
    $(function () {

        var chartLines = jQuery.parseJSON('<?php echo $json; ?>  ');

                });
