Question

I want to display information after I enter data into the database using ajax and json on codeigniter. ut the data return from json contained double quote characters (“”), the following controller and view ajax in codeigniter me.

controller:

public function simpanMenuMakanan() {
    $nama_makanan = $this->input->post('nama-menu-makanan');
    $harga_makanan = str_replace(".", "", $this->input->post('harga-makanan'));
    $jenis_makanan = $this->input->post('jenis-makanan');
    $data = array(
        'nama_makanan' => $nama_makanan,
        'harga_makanan' => $harga_makanan,
        'id_jenis_makanan' => $jenis_makanan
    );
    $simpan = $this->makanan_model->tambahMenuMakanan($data);
    if ($simpan) {
        $result = $nama_makanan . ' berhasil ditambah ke list menu makanan';
        echo json_encode($result);
    }
}

view javascript ajax:

        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: "<?php echo base_url(); ?>makanan/simpanmenumakanan",                        
            data: $(this).serialize(),               
            success: function(html){
                // other statement                   
                $('#result').text(html);
                // other statement
            }
        });

After I submit it will be out info “xxx berhasil ditambah ke list menu makanan”, but the problem is there is a double quote character, I want to bring up info like this without any double quotation xxx successfully added to the list of food menu.

If $nama_makanan is not array and you want to return string from php, then you need not use json_encode(), just try doing:

//in your function
$result = $nama_makanan . ' berhasil ditambah ke list menu makanan';
echo $result;
