I use the JSON Parser (json-framework - Project Hosting on Google Code)
Then you can do

NSString *json = [[NSString alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://xxxxxx.com/data.php"]];
				NSArray *data = (NSArray *) [jsonParser objectWithString:json error:NULL];
				[json release];

I still get the same error.I attached the Class file from the Json Framework

SBJsonParser *jsonParser =[[SBJsonParser alloc]init];
NSString *rawJSON = [[NSString alloc] initWithContentsofURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://xxxxx.asasa.com/edm.php"]];
NSArray *data = (NSArray *) [jsonParser objectWithString:rawJSON error:NULL];

I personally find using property list (plist) files alot easier. For example in one of my apps for a shop I have products saved in plist files which are created from a php script which is runs every hour to keep them up to date. Alternatively if they do a search I pass it to a php script that creates result.plist. Just do a quick search on google and you will find loads of tutorials: I use cfpropertylist in my php script to create the plist files.
