read recursive array with jquery

Question

I have this json from google api:

{
   "results" : [
      {

         "formatted_address" : "1 Broadway, New York, NY 10021, USA",
      }
   ],
   "status" : "OK"
}

how to get the value of "formatted_address"?

with this code (using jquery) I only get "results is Array"

$.getJSON(jsonFile, function(data){

    $.each(data, function(key, val){
        alert(key + ' is ' + val);
    });

});

In php it is very easy but I need this to be client-side

$.getJSON(jsonFile, function(data) {
    $.each(data.results, function(key, val) {
        alert(key + ' is ' + val);
    });
});

This should work.

You mean data.results rather than data[results]

what is the difference between both dara.results and data['results']
