    <p>Does anyone know why I can't access the array keys in the generated json array. Basically, I am doing an ajax call, then on success, doing another one. Everything works fine and I am getting a full, healthy and valid json array return, but I cannot access the keys and values.</p> <p>My jQuery</p> <pre><code>$("#register-form").submit(function(e){ e.preventDefault(); var firstname = $('#regfirstname').val(); var surname = $('#regsurname').val(); var email = $('#regregemail').val(); var password = $('#regregpassword').val(); var band = $('#regband').val(); var website = $('#regwebsite').val(); var company = $('#regcompany').val(); var address = $('#regaddress').val(); var city = $('#regcity').val(); var state = $('#regstate').val(); var postcode = $('#regpostcode').val(); var country = $('#regcountry').val(); var phone = $('#regphone').val(); var age = $('#regage').val(); var subscribe = $('#regsubscribe').val(); $.ajax({ type : 'POST', url : '/ajax/register', data : 'firstname='+firstname+'&amp;surname='+surname+'&amp;email='+email+'&amp;password='+password+'&amp;band='+band+'&amp;website='+website+'&amp;company='+company+'&amp;street='+address+'&amp;city='+city+'&amp;state='+state+'&amp;postcode='+postcode+'&amp;country='+country+'&amp;phone='+phone+'&amp;age='+age+'&amp;subscribe='+subscribe, success : function(data){ // automatically log the user in $.ajax({ type : 'POST', url : '/ajax/login', data : 'email='+email+'&amp;password='+password, success : function(user){ alert(user.logged_in); }, datatype : 'json' }); }, datatype : 'json' }); }); </code></pre> <p>If I do <code>alert(user);</code> it alerts the entire json array. But as soon as i try and access a value within it, it returns undefined.</p> <p>Example json array:</p> <pre><code>{"logged_in":true,"firstname":"Joe","surname":"Bloggs","Full_name":"Joe Bloggs","email":"address@email.com","phone":"123456789","website":"www.site.com.au","age":"25","street":"1 Road Street","city":"Town","state":"BLA","postcode":"1234","country":"13","company":"Freedman Electronics","band":"Daysend","subscribe":"2","mics":0} </code></pre> <p>Any ideas? </p> <p>Is this even possible to do? (AJAX within AJAX I mean).</p>

    1. COWhen you say alert(user) shows the entire json array, do you mean it's showing: {"logged_in":true,"firstname":"Joe","surname":"Bloggs", … because it should show: [Object] - is the 'user' parameter being populated by a string instead of the json object?

    3. COIt's not an answer to your question, but why don't you login the user with the first reuqest, if registration was successfull. This way you have two requests, which is slower.

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.
