    <p>I'm having issues building an html table with a JSON object that I've already got generated by a php page.</p> <p>I'm building my JSON object from a spreadsheet where it includes: Fname, Lname, Ext, Rm.</p> <p>My json.php webpage gives me this result:</p> <pre><code>[{"fName":"John","lName":"Doe","Ext":"#666","Rm":"C3","id":0},{"fName":"Abraham","lName":"Lincoln","Ext":"#917","Rm":"C1","id":1}] </code></pre> <p>So now I'm trying to build an html page filling a table with this data using jquery. Here's what I've got for my index.html:</p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js" type="text/javascript"&gt; &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div id="stuff" &lt;table id="userdata" border="1"&gt; &lt;thead&gt; &lt;th&gt;First Name&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;Last Name&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;Ext&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;Room&lt;/th&gt; &lt;/thead&gt; &lt;tbody&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;script&gt; $(document).ready(function(){ $("#userdata tbody").html(""); $.getJSON("json.php", function(data){ $.each(data.members, function(i,user){ var tblRow = "&lt;tr&gt;" +"&lt;td&gt;"+user.fName+"&lt;/td&gt;" +"&lt;td&gt;"+user.lName+"&lt;/td&gt;" +"&lt;td&gt;"+user.Ext+"&lt;/td&gt;" +"&lt;td&gt;"+user.Rm+"&lt;/td&gt;" +"&lt;/tr&gt;" $(tblRow).appendTo("#userdata tbody"); }); } ); }); &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p> </p> <p>EDIT: Found my solution with the following code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $json = file_get_contents('collab.json.php'); $data = json_decode($json,true); echo '&lt;table&gt;'; echo '&lt;tr&gt;&lt;th&gt;Username&lt;/th&gt;&lt;th&gt;Period&lt;/th&gt;&lt;th&gt;Room&lt;/th&gt;&lt;th&gt;Next?&lt;/th&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;'; $n = 0; foreach ($data as $key =&gt; $jsons) { foreach ($jsons as $key =&gt; $value) { echo '&lt;tr&gt;'; echo '&lt;td&gt;'.$data[$n]['username'].'&lt;/td&gt;'; echo '&lt;td&gt;'.$data[$n]['period'].'&lt;/td&gt;'; echo '&lt;td&gt;'.$data[$n]['Rm'].'&lt;/td&gt;'; echo '&lt;td&gt;'.$data[$n]['next'].'&lt;/td&gt;'; echo '&lt;/tr&gt;'; $n++; } } echo '&lt;/table&gt;'; ?&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre>

    1. COWhere does `members` in `data.members` comes from? I can't see it anywhere in your json.

    2. COAre you using Firebug or some other tool to see if / where a javascript error is occurring? If not, I strongly recommend that - otherwise you're taking stabs in the dark. Additionally, it will let you watch the ajax call, including what is being returned, so you can see if there's any issues there as well.

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
