json_encode Uncaught SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 2 of the JSON data

Question

I dont know whats wrong, but the following always says syntaxerror.

json_encode Uncaught SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 2 of the JSON data

const config_list = <?php echo json_encode($config_list); ?>;

const xx = JSON.parse(config_list);

x = xx.COUNTRY["1"];
alert(x);

Answer 1

That JSON is already parsed. You dont need to parse it again which will produce that error. Remove that line and it should work ok.
