Description

The JSON_DECODE() function is used to create a dynamic array (object) from the JSON formatted string, <expC>.

The optional parameter <expC2> specified the character encoding e.g. "1252". If this is specified the text on the file will be converted to UTF8 from the encoding specified.

Example

myobj = json_decode('{"Name":"Barry", "Company":"Lianja", "Items":["One", "two"]}')
? myobj
? myobj.name
? myobj.company
? myobj.items[1]
? myobj.items[2]

Object (refcnt=1)
(
    [name] => Barry
    [company] => Lianja
    [items] => Array (refcnt=1)
        (
            [1] = One
            [2] = two
        )
)
Barry
Lianja
One
two
