JQuery: Store JSON results in a JavaScript array? -

i have php script creates json array called 'cities'.

i can retrieve info using next jquery:

$.ajax({ datatype: "json", url: "mysql.php", success: function(data){ console.log(data[0]);//returns first item in cities array };

but unsure how loop through info retrieved , come in javascript array.

i dont have anyway of initialising count, such as:

var counter = cities.length;

it doesnt seem recognised 'cities; name of retrieved json array.

am missing in ajax script?

$.ajax({ datatype: "json", url: "mysql.php", success: function(data){ $.each(data.info , function() { //refer json object address actual names var cityname = this.cityname; }); };

javascript jquery ajax arrays json
