Pass Data from PHP to Javascript and Vice Versa

I have a php file that echos JSON encoded arrays, the contents of which are pulled from a remote database.

I want to be able to pass this data from the PHP file to a Javascript file linked to a running HTML file displayed in the browser.

What are the best practises for passing data, particularly in JSON format fromPHP to Javascript...

The jQuery Javascript library provides a bunch of great ways for handling Ajax. JSON is a wonderful format for client/server communication, even as-is. XML is also good.
