retrieve JSON object from server and display data in table within webpage

emacadocious

I am a total newb when it comes to jQuery, and even more when it comes to JSON. I have worked with jQuery some in the past and can do simple things, but nothing like this.

I am looking to use a .json file (dataRetrieval.json) and retrieve JSON object from server and display the data in a table within a webpage. So far I have found a few leads on google, but I don't have anything promising and basically am looking to start from scratch. Is there anyone out there that can PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me with this?
