  1. I have set up code to retrieve data from a MySQL database using AJAX. The data is retrieved in JSON format. (Thank you, Larry, for your clear explanations on how to do all this.)

     

    Using firebug, I know that the data is returning properly. Here, for example, is what I see in the firebug console when I use the line console.log(JSON.stringify(response, null, 4));
     

    [
    {
    "0": "1",
    "1": "Allen",
    "2": "Wyatt",
    "3": "allen@sharonparq.com",
    "4": "8013692885",
    "5": "8016072035",
    "6": "8013692885",
    "7": "238 E. 550 N.",
    "8": "",
    "9": "Orem",
    "10": "UT",
    "11": "84057",
    "12": "about",
    "13": "",
    "14": "Awyatt",
    "15": "AweEMLr53r/Ds",
    "16": "1",
    "uid": "1",
    "first_name": "Allen",
    "last_name": "Wyatt",
    "email": "allen@sharonparq.com",
    "phone_home": "8013692885",
    "phone_work": "8016072035",
    "phone_mobile": "8013692885",
    "street1": "238 E. 550 N.",
    "street2": "",
    "city": "Orem",
    "state": "UT",
    "zip_code": "84057",
    "bio": "about",
    "picture_file": "",
    "username": "Awyatt",
    "pword": "AweEMLr53r/Ds",
    "super": "1"
    }
    ]
    

    What I don't understand (and what I cannot find in Modern JavaScript) is how to actually use this data. I know how to do this in PHP; it is a piece of cake. (And, perhaps, that PHP knowledge is mucking up my understanding of how to do it in Javascript.)

     

    First, I don't understand why my data shows twice in the JSON object. Second, I don't understand the proper Javascript syntax to access the data. For isntance, if I wanted to put together a string that consisted of the first_name field ("Allen"), a space, and the last_name field ("Wyatt") to result in "Allen Wyatt", what is the proper syntax?

     

    Quite confused and stumped. Sorry!
