How to import data with JSON?

Import data w/json into jquery

• Sorry this is probably simple but I am new to this and I cant find any documentation that makes sense. I have a link to json that I need to bring into a list for a jquery carousel {"products": [{"name":"gadget", "id":{"id":"g123", "vendorCode":"qqw234", "vendorSku":"g223"}, Everything I try comes up blank or no data found. Added from answer: just listed part of it to show how it is formated. I can pull the data fine using php so I know the link is OK This is what I want to do; $.getJSON(http://mylink.com, function(data){ $.each(data.items, function(i,item){ $("").attr("src", item.products.image).appendTo("#images") .wrap(" "); }); $("#products.name").html(data.title); $("#products.description").html(products.description); $("#products.productLink").html("Details "); Something is wrong though -I've been staring at it all day - I am sure it is simple but I can't see it ARG I don't know what I'm doing. Is this right: item.products.image? I am trying to get it into a list so I can use jquery carousel

• Answer:

  Use http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.getJSON/ like this: $.getJSON('path/to/file', function(response){ // response is a variable containing the JSON object, if it fetched it successfully });
