Return a JSON object using PHP json_encode() & MySQL to pass to jQuery function

Question

I\'m trying to create a json object from MySQL results, but not getting the result I need.

Here is the PHP

$json = array();
$result = m         


        

Answer 1

you output your json by hand and then you call json_encode on an empty array() - $json

json_encode() outputs [] on you pass an empty array so your last [] comes from here
$jsonstring = json_encode($json);
echo $jsonstring;
