I am creating with PHP some JSON-data that seems to be invalid. I'm trying to integrate the google API in my code.
<?php
$con=mysql_connect("localhost","root","") or die("Failed to connect with database!!!!");
mysql_select_db("mobiledb", $con);
// The Chart table contains two fields: weekly_task and percentage
// This example will display a pie chart. If you need other charts such as a Bar chart, you will need to modify the code a little to make it work with bar chart and other charts
$sth = mysql_query("SELECT `id`, `Q1`, `Q2` FROM `table2` WHERE `id`=8710058770");
/*
---------------------------
example data: Table (Chart)
--------------------------
weekly_task percentage marks
Sleep 30 60
Watching Movie 40 80
work 44 90
*/
$rows = array();
//flag is not needed
$flag = true;
$table = array();
$table['cols'] = array(
// Labels for your chart, these represent the column titles
// Note that one column is in "string" format and another one is in "number" format as pie chart only required "numbers" for calculating percentage and string will be used for column title
array('label' => 'id', 'type' => 'string'),
array('label' => 'Q1', 'type' => 'number'),
array('label' => 'Q2', 'type' => 'number')
);
$rows = array();
while($r = mysql_fetch_assoc($sth)) {
$temp = array();
// the following line will be used to slice the Pie chart
$temp[] = array('v' => (string) $r['id']);
// Values of each slice
$temp[] = array('v' => (int) $r['Q1'], 'f' => (int) $r['Q2']);
$rows[] = array('c' => $temp);
}
$table['rows'] = $rows;
$jsonTable = json_encode($table);
echo $jsonTable;
?>
MY Json Output And check in http://jsonlint.com/
{
cols: [
{
label: "id",
type: "string"
},
{
label: "Q1",
type: "number"
},
{
label: "Q2",
type: "number"
}
],
rows: [
{
c: [
{
v: "8710058770"
},
{
v: 35,
f: 40
}
]
},
{
c: [
{
v: "8710058770"
},
{
v: 60,
f: 70
}
]
},
{
c: [
{
v: "8710058770"
},
{
v: 75,
f: 85
}
]
}
]
}
And the error I could see when I validate
Parse error on line 1:

json_encodewould result in an "invalid JSON format".header("Content-type","application/json");at the beginning of the file.
