How do I output JSON columns in jQuery

Answer 1

You have to specify the dataType as json in your request. It tells jquery to treat the response as json, so that you can use it as you are using currently. Also once you get the data as son you can create HTML to display.

Answer 2

From the qTip forums, it appears that the author is adding an ajax call inside the api callback. Maybe that will solve your problem?

Here is his example:

$(this).qtip({
 content: 'Loading...',
 api: {
  onRender: function()
  {
   // Setup your AJAX request here
   $.ajax({
    url: DOC_ROOT + "admin/ajax/tooltip_process.php",
    type: 'GET';
    contentType: "application/json charset=utf-8",
    dataType: "json",
    success: function(json) {
     if(json[0].result == 'success') return json[0].tip;
     else alert('^$%#$#$');
    }
   });
  }
});
