How can I get the contains of this JSON file in

Answer 1

JSON has nothing to do with jQuery.

There is nothing wrong with the code you have now.

To store the variable mainStore, it is a variable in that json.

You should store that json to a variable:

var myJSON = {"mainStore":[{vehicle:'1',description:'nothing to say'},{vehicle:'2',description:'nothing to say'},{vehicle:'3',description:'nothing to say'}]};

var mainStore = myJSON.mainStore;

//.. rest of your code.
