    <p>I am trying to parse a JSON output:</p> <p><a href="http://www.freebase.com/experimental/topic/standard?id=/en/colonel_sanders" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.freebase.com/experimental/topic/standard?id=/en/colonel_sanders</a></p> <p>I'd like to put the basic data into an array using Javascript. In the "properties" object I'd like to grab any "text" element one level under "properties" as a label and grab the "text" under the "values" object to match the label.</p> <p>For the above I would get:</p> <ul> <li>"description": "Harland David Sanders, better known as Colonel Sanders...</li> <li>"Organizations founded": KFC </li> <li>"Cause of death": Leukemia</li> <li>"Date of death": Dec 16, 1980</li> <li>"Place of death": Louisville</li> <li>"Date of birth": Sep 9, 1890 </li> <li>"Gender": Male</li> </ul> <p>etc...</p> <p>I have some code which recursively runs through the JSON but I am a novice with javascript and JSON and am having a lot trouble in step one:</p> <p>Firstly, grabbing the "text" trying by identifying an element as being "an element of" the main properties object; then </p> <p>Secondly grabbing from the associated values array any text element (if the value is a collection then I would like to concatenate the strings from the text or otherwise ignore it).</p> <p>I hope that make sense.</p> <p>nb. the code I use is similar to here: <em><a href="http://tlrobinson.net/projects/javascript-fun/jsondiff/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://tlrobinson.net/projects/javascript-fun/jsondiff/</a></em></p>

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.
