In decoding the data got from a query in a php file using JSON, since
I don't have any knowledge about a callback function I tried placing
all the data in an array which i declared inside the function.

the decoding is successful as well as placing them in the array, I
simply tested it by making an alert() of the data in the array. after
the line of decoding which is this..

function geocode()
{
temp = array(); //sample array
queryString = the data that i need to search;
new Request(  {method: 'post',
                  url: DOMAIN_URL + 'sample.php?v=' + new
Date().getTime(),
            onSuccess: function(response){
                        /*
                          decoding of line
                          and placing the data in the array
                          alert(temp[i]) // successful
                        */
}).send(queryString);

alert(temp.length);
// the alert says the size is 0, no content? should I declare the
array global?

}
