The your seems a multi-array  not a JSON object   If you want access the object like an array  you have to use some sort of key value  such as   var JSONObject        city     Blankaholm   Gamleby       date     2012-10-23    2012-10-22       description     Blankaholm  Under natten har det varit inbrott    E22 i med Gamleby  Singelolycka  En bilist har       lat     57 586174   16 521841        long     57 893162   16 406090       and access it with   JSONObject city 0       gt  Blankaholm JSONObject date 1       gt  2012-10-22  and so on      or  JSONObject  city   0       gt  Blankaholm JSONObject  date   1       gt  2012-10-22  and so on      or  in last resort  if you don t want change your structure  you can do something like that   var JSONObject        data           Blankaholm   Gamleby          2012-10-23    2012-10-22          Blankaholm  Under natten har det varit inbrott    E22 i med Gamleby  Singelolycka  En bilist har          57 586174   16 521841           57 893162   16 406090          JSONObject data 0  1       gt  Gambleby

I found a straight forward way of solving this  with the use of JSON parse   Let s assume the json below is inside the variable jsontext         Blankaholm    Gamleby        2012-10-23    2012-10-22        Blankaholm  Under natten har det varit inbrott    E22 i med Gamleby  Singelolycka  En bilist har        57 586174   16 521841      57 893162   16 406090       The solution is this   var parsedData   JSON parse jsontext     Now I can access the elements the following way   var cities   parsedData 0

I noticed a couple of syntax errors  but other than that  it should work fine   var arr         Blankaholm    Gamleby        2012-10-23    2012-10-22        Blankaholm  Under natten har det varit inbrott    E22 i med Gamleby  Singelolycka  En bilist har        lt - syntax error here     57 586174   16 521841      57 893162   16 406090        console log arr 4           57 893162   16 406090   console log arr 4  0      57 893162
