I have been looking at Google Charts and have attempted to replicate the 
sample on "Populating Data Using Server-Side Code" but get the error "Table 
has no columns."

My code is below:

*For the project.html:*
<html>
  <head>
    <!--Load the AJAX API-->
    <script type="text/javascript" 
src="https://www.google.com/jsapi";></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" 
src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js";></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    
    // Load the Visualization API and the piechart package.
    google.load('visualization', '1', {'packages':['corechart']});
      
    // Set a callback to run when the Google Visualization API is loaded.
    google.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
      
    function drawChart() {
      var jsonData = $.ajax({
          url: "getData.php",
          dataType:"json",
          async: false
          }).responseText;
          
      // Create our data table out of JSON data loaded from server.
      var data = new google.visualization.DataTable(jsonData);

      // Instantiate and draw our chart, passing in some options.
      var chart = new 
google.visualization.PieChart(document.getElementById('chart_div'));
      chart.draw(data, {width: 400, height: 240});
    }

    </script>
  </head>

  <body>
    <!--Div that will hold the pie chart-->
    <div id="chart_div"></div>
  </body>
</html>

*For the getData.php:*
<?php 

// This is just an example of reading server side data and sending it to 
the client.
// It reads a json formatted text file and outputs it.

$string = file_get_contents("sampleData.json");
echo $string;

// Instead you can query your database and parse into JSON etc etc

?>

and finally, the *sampleData.json:*
{
  "cols": [
        {"id":"","label":"Topping","pattern":"","type":"string"},
        {"id":"","label":"Slices","pattern":"","type":"number"}
      ],
  "rows": [
        {"c":[{"v":"Mushrooms","f":null},{"v":3,"f":null}]},
        {"c":[{"v":"Onions","f":null},{"v":1,"f":null}]},
        {"c":[{"v":"Olives","f":null},{"v":1,"f":null}]},
        {"c":[{"v":"Zucchini","f":null},{"v":1,"f":null}]},
        {"c":[{"v":"Pepperoni","f":null},{"v":2,"f":null}]}
      ]
}

I have seen this come up a few times but am still not able to get it to 
work.  Thanks!
