Question

I load a php/json file. This is my json file:

echo '{';
echo '"position":[';
while($inhoud = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
  echo '{';
  echo '"lat":"'.$inhoud['lat'].'",';
  echo '"long":"'.$inhoud['long'].'",';
  echo '}';

}

echo ']}';

This works. I want to load it in my javascript and do it like this:

$.getJSON('req/position.php', function(data) { 
$.each(data, function(key, val) {
    newLatLng = key;
});
});

but this doesn’t work. It loads the file but i don’t get this data. What should i do?

Thanks,

You have your co-ordinates defined in the array named position. You need to iterate through that. The Array contains objects with the properties lat and long. If you want to use the values, you should try something like:

$.getJSON('req/position.php'), function(data){
    $.each(data.position, function(index, value){
        var newLatLng = { latitude: value.lat, longitude: value.long };
    });
});
