Add Additional Objects to JSON Encoded Array

Question

I am currently using a JSON encoded array to display the users in my database for an auto-suggest feature.

It looks something like this:

$sth = mysql_que         


        

Answer 1

Just keep pushing to the $data array.

$json = array();

    while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sth)) {
        $json['name'] = $row['name'];
        $json['id'] = $row['id'];
        $data[] = $json;
    }

$custom = array('name'=>'foo', 'id' => 'bar');
$data[] = $custom;

Then at the very end, do your json_encode. Assuming you're not referring to merging it in the JS itself with multiple ajax calls.

And if you have separate scripts, combine them in one php page.
