PHP array() to javascript array() [duplicate]

Answer 1

Have you tried using json_encode http://php.net/manual/en/function.json-encode.php

It converts an array to a json string

Answer 2

<?php 
            $ConvertDateBack = Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('ConvertDate');
            $disabledDaysRange = array();
            foreach($this->reservedDates as $dates) {
                 $date = $ConvertDateBack->ConvertDateBack($dates->reservation_date);
                 $disabledDaysRange[] = $date;
                 array_push($disabledDaysRange, $date);
            }

            $finalArr = json_encode($disabledDaysRange);
?>
<script>
var disabledDaysRange = <?=$finalArr?>;

</script>

Answer 3

When we convert PHP array into JS array then we get all values in string. For example:

var ars= '<?php echo json_encode($abc); ?>';

The issue in above method is when we try to get the first element of ars[0] then it gives us bracket where as in we need first element as compare to bracket so the better way to this is

var packing_slip_orders = JSON.parse('<?php echo json_encode($packing_slip_orders); ?>');

You should use json_parse after json_encode to get the accurate array result.
