Putting a PHP Array in a JavaScript Array

I'm having some trouble putting a php array into a javascript array, here's what I have:

<?php  $table = array(); while($d = mysql_fetch_array($sDP)) {$table[] = $d;  } ?>   <script Language="JavaScript"> var description = new Array; <?php for($i=0; $i < 7; $i++) { echo "description[$i]='".$table[$i]."';\n";} ?> for(i = 0; i < 7; i++){   document.write(description[i])  }  </SCRIPT>

However document.write gives out "Array", though I'm not sure where it's coming from. I know it's not coming from my database, so there must be something wrong with the way I'm assigning the array?

json_encode() is the best option. The reason your first script isn't working is because $table is a two-dimensional array and therefore requires two nested loops to read values from it.
