Generating a JavaScript array from a PHP array

I just want to know how to create JavaScript array with the help of PHP and help are definitely appreciated

I have a PHP result to this form

Array
(
    [0] => stdClass Object
        (
            [id] => 11
            [name] => MLB
            [totalcount] => 4
        )

    [1] => stdClass Object
        (
            [id] => 35
            [name] => American Idol
            [totalcount] => 2
        )

) 

and i want to convert this array to JavaScript array like this

<script type="text/javascript">
    var myData = new Array(['MLB', 4], ['American Idol', 2]);
</script>

First, convert your input array to the required format:

$new_data = array();
foreach( $original_data as $ori_row )
  $new_data[] = array( $ori_row->name, $ori_row->totalcount );

Now you can enjoy the benefits of json_encode: http://php.net/manual/en/function.json-encode.php

$json = json_encode( $new_data );
echo <<<END
  <script type="text/javascript">
    var myData = $json;
  </script>
END;

By the way, you don’t have to write new Array(...), simply write [...], just like your inner arrays.
