My code looks like this:

var jsonData;

$.ajax({
        url: \'data.php\',
         


        

Answer 1

You should be using header() function in your PHP to set the proper response header (content type and charset):

header('Content-type: application/json; charset=UTF-8');

You should also repeat this at the top of HTML pages:
