How can I pass PHP objects to javascript

Question

I have objects in php that each represents a "item" and all info associated with it.

And when the user browses the page, these objects should be passed to javascript. Ideally, mirroring the same structure, so I can use Raphael to display each item and its info as separate shapes on my site.

However, how do you get an object from php to javascript?

Hello @kartik,

You can convert the PHP object to an array, and then use JSON function to encode it. After that, decode it from JavaScript. Here are some basic steps:

1. Convert the PHP object to an array.

2. Using json_encode() to encode that PHP array.

3. Pass JSON-encoded data to PHP

4. Decode JSON from JavaScript using JSON.parse or you can use jQuery.parseJSON to do that.

Hope it helps!!

If not then its recommended to join our Java training class and learn about Java in detail.

Thank You!!
