Trying to load local JSON file to show data in a html page using JQuery

You can simply include a Javascript file in your HTML that declares your JSON object as a variable. Then you can access your JSON data from your global Javascript scope using data.employees, for example.

index.html:

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
  <script src="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18637418/data.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

data.js:

var data = {
  "start": {
    "count": "5",
    "title": "start",
    "priorities": [{
      "txt": "Work"
    }, {
      "txt": "Time Sense"
    }, {
      "txt": "Dicipline"
    }, {
      "txt": "Confidence"
    }, {
      "txt": "CrossFunctional"
    }]
  }
}
