Parse JSON Array

My JSON is something like this:

[{
        "myviews":[{
                "2011-05-12_2011-05-14":{
                    "name":"thiswk",
                    "data":[[12,
                            2403
                        ],
                        [13,
                            2082
                        ],
                        [14,
                            5823
                        ]
                    ]
                }
            },
            {
                "2011-06-05_2011-06-7":{
                    "name":"lastwk",
                    "data":[[5,
                            1279
                        ],
                        [6,
                            6685
                        ],
                        [7,
                            2163
                        ]
                    ]
                }
            }
        ]
    }
]

    JSONObject jo = new JSONObject(jsonString);
    JSONArray ja;
    jo = jo.getJSONObject("2011-05-12_2011-05-14");
    ja = jo.getJSONArray("data");
    int resultCount = ja.length();
    for (int i = 0; i < resultCount; i++)
    {
        JSONObject resultObject = ja.getJSONObject(i);
        resultObject.getJSONArray("12");
        System.out.println("--");
    }

I am unable to read the values under the "data" array. Get this error

Exception in thread "main" org.json.JSONException: A JSONObject text must begin with '{' at character 1

You're trying to create a JSONObject based on a string that doesn't represent an object, but an array containing one object.

To get the contained object, try

JSONArray inputArray = new JSONArray(jsonString);
JSONObject jo = inputArray.getJSONObject(0);

I think some of your later work is wrong as well, but perhaps this will get you started.

data appears to be an array of arrays. Perhaps you need to call ja.getJSONArray(i)?
