Question

I write a script to make an ajax call here is my code

function ajax_post(obj) {
    obj = '#'+ obj; 

    var formData = $(obj).serializeArray();    

    $.ajax({
        url: '__core/info.php',
        type:'get',
        dataType: 'json',
        data: formData,
        success: function(resp){
            alert(resp);
        }
    })
}

and here is my info.php

$last_Res = theme::get_last_themes_desk(); //$last_Res is an array 
echo(json_encode($last_Res));

but when alert it shows return object object ….. what should i do if datatype is json should i convert it to another format ? $last_Res is an array

Answer 1

In response to your comment (showing the response data, which is an array, containing a single object):

//resp = [{"id":"2","name":"babak_theme","sh_describ":"support css3 and ie 9 ","rate":"3","time":"2"}];
resp = resp[0];
alert('id => ' + resp.id + ', Name => ' + resp.name);//etc...

Will serve you just fine…

$last_Res is an associative array, most likely. JS doesn’t have assoc arrays, but converts these to objects/ object literals:

//php:
$foo = array('foo' => 'bar');
//in JS:
var foo = {foo: 'bar'};
alert(foo);//alerts [object Object]
console.log(foo);//shows you what properties/prototypes/methods the object has

That’s all there is too it. To access the data:

for (var prop in resp)
{//for "assoc arrays"
    if (resp.hasOwnProperty(prop))
    {
        alert(prop + ' => '+resp[prop]);
    }
}
for (var i=0;i<resp.length;i++)
{//for regular arrays
    alert(i + ' => ' + resp[i])'
}
