I am trying to sort out the data I retrieved from an api with javascript.
Code :
function getResults() {
var url = $.getJSON("http://api.api.com&leagues=SOCENGPRE&lang=en&format=jsonp&callback=?", function(jsondata){;
for(var i = 0; i < jsondata.length; i++)
for(var id in jsondata[i]) {
console.log("ID - " + id);
console.log("TEAM - " + jsondata[i][id].home_team);
}
});
}
Example of data retrieved :
{
"SOCENGPRE": {
"league_name": "Barclays Premier League",
"league_phid": null,
"league_type": null,
"fixtures": [
{
"id": "64714",
"code": "SOCENGPRE",
"event_slug": "west_ham-tottenham-1401290",
"home_team": "West Ham",
"away_team": "Tottenham",
},
{
"id": "64711",
"code": "SOCENGPRE",
"event_slug": "manchester_u-sunderland-1401286",
"home_team": "Manchester U",
"away_team": "Sunderland"
}
But using my code I cannot seem to get the results I am wanting.
I want to print out every games ID and Home Team. Any insights on why is my code not working? Thank you very much in advance!
UPDATE: I have removed the extra semi-colon but it's still not printing the data for me.
UPDATE 2: Regarding the requests for the URL. When I call it in a browser I get this huge result

Change your getResults function to be called after the JSON has been parsed, like so:
var myDataVar;
$.ajax({
url: "URL to JSON file here",
dataType: "text", //If you get an error here, change the type to "text"
success: function (data) {
myDataVar = $.parseJSON(data);
getResults();
}
});
The above code will save the JSON file's parsed data into a single variable.
It will then call a function to get the results, being this function:
function getResults() {
var fixturesLength = myDataVar.SOCENGPRE.fixtures.length - 1;
for (var i = 0; i <= fixturesLength; i++) {
console.log(myDataVar.SOCENGPRE.fixtures[i].id);
}
}
The above loop will print to the console every one of your fixtures ID's.
