I'm dealing with highcharts with dynamic data (values retrieved from database). By writing a query i was able to retrieve the following data from the table
Item 2011 2012
pen 5 7
pencil 4 20
eraser 6 43
I want to store the above info in the following structure and pass it to another page
[{ name:'pen', data: [5,7]},{ name:'pencil', data: [4,20]},{ name:'eraser', data: [6,43]}]";
I want to push the above data to the drilldown highchart.
Is there a way i can generate in this format? I've tried using json_encode but unable to succeed. Can i achieve this using json_encode?
Updated I've tried in this way
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
$rows[]= $row;
}
echo json_encode($rows);
and got
[{"Item":"pen","2011":"5","2012":"7"},{"Item":"pencil","2011":"4","2012":"20"},{"Item":"eraser","2011":"6","2012":"43"}]
json_encode
is a convenience method to convert an array into JSON format. To have the output you provided, you will need an array of arrays. Each sub-array has keys "name" and "data", where "name" is the Item column, and "data" is another array containing values from 2011 and 2012.
$results = mysql_query("...");
$arr = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($results))
{
$name = $row['Item'];
$data = array($row['2011'], $row['2012']);
$arr[] = array('name' => $name, 'data' => $data);
}
echo json_encode($arr);
