accessing jsondataa sent from php

i have this json data being sent from my php:

echo json_encode(
            array(
            "Doctitle" => htmlentities($Doctitle),
            //"doctype" => htmlentities($doctype),

            )
        );

I hm trying to get the value displayed in jquery like so :

 $.post($("#add_title").attr("action"), $("#add_title").serialize(),
      function(data) {
          var fileI= data;
      var fileInput2= fileI[0].Doctitle; 
.......});

But all i get is undefined.and when i only check the fileI variable, there is a string:

{"Doctitle":"sssvvv"}

how can I get the value sssvvv from this??

jQuery is supposed to be able to guess the content type; but for best practice, your PHP script should clearly indicate the content type (do this before any output):

header('Content-type: application/json');

You can then access your data in javascript:

$.post($("#add_title").attr("action"), $("#add_title").serialize(),
    function(data) {
        var Doctitle = data.Doctitle;
    }
);
