I need help trying to load a JsonData.json file into a javascript array.
My JsonData.json file structure is below:
[
    {
        "ID": 1,
        "Name": "John Smith",
        "IDNumber": "7606015012088"
    },
    {
        "ID": 2,
        "Name": "Molly Malone",
        "IDNumber": "8606125033087"
    },
    {
        "ID": 3,
        "Name": "Rianna Chetty",
        "IDNumber": "6207145122087"
    }
]

I am using the code below but I am getting an error: 'myList' is undefined
PHP
$.getJSON('JsonData.json')
   .done(function (data) {
       myList = data;
   });

Where in your file this variable (myList) is declared?

the name of my array needs to be called myList

Yes, but in your script you need to have the declaration. Try changing your code to something like one shown below.

var myList;
$.getJSON('JsonData.json')
.done(function (data) {
myList = data;
});

Regards,
Yes, this will solve the issue.
