Parsing JSON in PHP

Question

I´ve got the following JSON string:

{\"Data\":{\"Recipes\":{\"Recipe_5\":{\"ID\":\"5\",\"TITLE\":\"Spaghetti Bolognese\"},\"Recipe_7\":{\"ID\":\"7\",\"TITLE         


        

Answer 1

If you want to do that in JavaScript, you can simply access JSON data like "normal" objects:

var jsonData = {
    "Data": {"Recipes": {"Recipe_5": {"ID":"5","TITLE":"Spaghetti Bolognese"}}}
    // more data
};
alert(jsonData.Data.Recipes.Recipe_5.TITLE);

This will print the TITLE of Recipe_5 in a message box.

EDIT:

If you want all the titles in a list, you can do something like this:

var titles = [];
for (var key in jsonData.Data.Recipes) {
    var recipe = jsonData.Data.Recipes[key];
    titles.push(recipe.TITLE);
}
alert(titles);
