The forum will no longer display the old thread for some reason, which 
probably means I am getting close to figureing out the issue...

using your php (which outputs exactly the same thing as mine):

$myArray = array(
    array('Sensor', 'Temp', array('role' => 'style')),
    array('Baby', 71.15, 'green'),
    array('Main', 71.2616, 'green'),
    array('A', 75.425, 'green'),
    array('C', 69.575, 'blue'),
    array('D', 60.6866, 'blue')
);
echo json_encode($myArray);



and then :

 var jsonData = $.ajax({
         url: "getData-roombars2.php",
         dataType:"json",
               }) ;

var data = new google.visualization.arrayToDataTable( JSON.parse(jsonData) 
);

it just crashes.

var parsed=JSON.parse(jsonData); also crashes. So there is still a basic 
issue with getting the array passed. Im guessing the little extraneous 
assoc array 'role=>style' bit is forcing json_encode to output an object 
instead of an array... seems like I'll have to leave that cell in the array 
blank in php, then have the javascript code manually define just that one 
cell with the special formatting for arrayToDataTable. 

Also, both your and my php is outputting: 

[["Sensor","Temp",{"role":"style"}],["Baby",71.15,"green"],["Main",71.2616,"green"],["A",75.425,"green"],["C",69.575,"blue"],["D",60.6866,"blue"]]

which doesnt work even plugged in directly. The double quotes around the 
color names have to be manually changed to single quotes and then it works 
as :

var data = new 
google.visualization.arrayToDataTable([["Sensor","Temp",{"role":"style"}],["Baby",71.15,'green'],["Main",71.2616,'green'],["A",75.425,'green'],["C",69.575,'blue'],["D",60.6866,'blue']]);

Not sure what special dance I need to do to make both JSON happy with 
double quotes and arrayToDataTable happy with single quotes. It just seems 
like Im reinventing the wheel just to pass an array.
