php callback json,PHP & JSON - Callback Function

I'm a JS newbie ... I've got a PHP page w/ a JavaScript function which makes a JSON call to a database server. That JSON function returns an array, which I need to parse and do something with. I understand the need for the callback (currently getting the undefined errors), but am confused as to the actual syntax. Can anyone provide a bit of guidance?

Here's my JSON function in the PHP Page:

var GETDATA = function()

{

$(document).ready(function()

{

$.getJSON('api.php', function(data)

{

$.each(data, function(key, val)

{

UpdateGraph(val.x, val.y, val.z);

});

});

});

};`

**The UpdateGraph function takes the variables and performs some further business logic

The api.php page connects to a database, grabs a recordset, and puts it into a JSON array. the last line of that is

echo json_encode($arr);

I understand the asym flow of this, and that I need a callback function to fire when the data is received ... but I'm lost in how to make this happen. Any guidance would be most appreciated.
