I am using json_encode to output the results of a mySQL query which is part of a jquery & ajax. $result = json_encode($array); echo $result; The output on my screen is: {0:"John 14:27","verse_reference":"John 14:27"} How do I format json_encode output? I would like John 14:27 to be what is displayed. Ron -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
