how to convert a JSon object to an array in Javascript - php

Question

I am returning array as
$array = array {
'id' => 1,
'name'=>krishna,
}
echo json_encode($array);
exit;
from an ajax call
How can I convert this json value to java script array?
This is my actual data
var data = [{
"candidate_notes_id":"1",
"candidate_id":"38",
"subject":"test",
"description":"t‌estestsete\netestes\n\n\nsteetet",
"private":"0",
"created_date":"2012-09-14 11:55:13",
"updated_date":"2012-09-14 11:55:13",
"updated_by":"admin"
}]
var newArray = jQuery.parseJSON(data);
alert(newArray);
return false;
result :
var newArray = JSON.stringify(data);
var date_split = newArray.substr(1,newArray.length-2);
var newData = date_split.replace('\n','<br>');
var newArray = $.parseJSON(newData);
alert(newArray.candidate_notes_id);
alert(newArray.candidate_id);
alert(newArray.subject);
alert(newArray.description);

If you are using jQuery then you can use jQuery.parseJSON(YOUR_AJAX_RESPONSE_DATA); which will convert json to JS object

});

Answer 3

You can parse it using
obj = JSON.parse(responseData); // replace `responseData` with your XHR response variable name
in your success callback function. Then convert it an array as follows
var myArray=[];
myArray[0]=obj.id;
myArray[1]=obj.name;
but first of all your
$array = array {
'id' => 1,
'name'=>krishna,
};
should be
$array = array (
'id' => 1,
'name'=>'krishna'
);
