    <p>I'm trying to json_encode my array I'm getting back so I can place it inside of a jQuery plugin for the data source. My issue is that I am using PDO to query my database to get back the array, but upon doing a print_r, I see that every name I'm getting back from my database is in its own array. How would I place all these results into a single array so that when I do my json_encode it is all in one readable string for the jQuery plugin?</p> <p>Database Query (PDO) - </p> <pre><code>$query = " SELECT name FROM `clients` "; try { $stmt = $b3-&gt;prepare($query); $stmt-&gt;execute(); } catch(PDOException $ex) { die("Failed to run query: " . $ex-&gt;getMessage()); } $players = $stmt-&gt;fetchAll(); </code></pre> <p>Example of the returned array upon doing (<em>Note I have 8000 getting returned so I will only post the first 5 or so</em>)</p> <pre><code>print_r($players); Array ( [0] =&gt; Array ( [name] =&gt; ! CBC.ZXR ) [1] =&gt; Array ( [name] =&gt; ! marioxz ) [2] =&gt; Array ( [name] =&gt; ! V v :] ) [3] =&gt; Array ( [name] =&gt; !?! ) [4] =&gt; Array ( [name] =&gt; !CU @ 1337 ) </code></pre> <p>So more or less, how would I unify my array, so that when I do</p> <pre><code>json_encode($players["name"]); </code></pre> <p>It will return back a single JSON string of the names mentioned above.</p> <p><strong>Edit</strong></p> <p>Current Code, </p> <pre><code>$query = " SELECT name FROM `clients` "; try { $stmt = $b3-&gt;prepare($query); $stmt-&gt;execute(); } catch(PDOException $ex) { die("Failed to run query: " . $ex-&gt;getMessage()); } $playerNames = $stmt-&gt;fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_COLUMN, 0); json_encode($playerNames); var_dump(json_last_error()); </code></pre>

    1. CO`json_encode` _returns_ a value, it doesn't transform its argument. Store this value (`$playerNamesJson = json_encode($playerNames);`) and/or echo it. Right now you're just throwing the result away.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
