Question

Is it possible with getJSON, to pass 2 different arrays?

$.getJSON('<?php echo $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']; ?>', {
    ajax: 'ajax_article_partlist' ,
    parent_article: $('#selected_article').val()
},
function(data) {
     $('#articles').html('');
     $('#article_table').show('slide');
        for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
        $('#articles').append("<p>"+data[i]+"</p>");
        }
});

this is my request ,on php side i echo and array. But i got now a second array i have to pass in same request. So is that possible, or do i have to make a new getJSON?

php code:

    case 'ajax_article_partlist' :
    header('Content-type: application/json');

    $form->addFormField(new FW_HTML_Form_Request('parent_article'));

    $form->resolveRequest();

    $parent_article = $form->getValue('parent_article');
    $part_list =$db_obj->getFormatedPartList($parent_article);
    $db_obj->checkArticleProgram($parent_article);

    echo json_encode($part_list);
    include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/inc/includes/cms.footer.inc');
    exit;
    break;

Here are array syntax details: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php

echo json_encode(array("part_list" => $part_list, "second_array" => $second_array));

And than in getJSON success function:

function(data) {
     $('#articles').html('');
     $('#article_table').show('slide');
     for (var i = 0; i < data.parts_list.length; i++) {
            $('#articles').append("<p>"+data.parts_list[i]+"</p>");
     }
     for (var i = 0; i < data.second_array.length; i++) {
           //do somethign with second array
     }
}
