I’ll have to look at the JSON response to know for sure (I’m on my phone right now) but try taking out the Generate JSON from Object block.

This is what I get when I enter that URL ([http://hochl-it.at/arduino/zisterne/json.php](http://hochl-it.at/arduino/zisterne/json.php)) into a browser:

**Parse error** : syntax error, unexpected ‘{’ in **/home/ho018clu/www/home/arduino/zisterne/json.php** on line **8**

It’s not returning a valid JSON response which is why your blocks don’t work properly.

Thanks for your answer.  
Is it possible to remove the " when I will get for exampel a text via json like “Example” or “1.1.2000 15:30”.  
kindly regards

You can use the text replace block to replace all quote marks with nothing ("").
