I found a method for converting javascript arrays to PHP arrays here: "http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/PHP/Recipe/414334" and would like to expand the list of types the function knows about. It looks like 's' = string, 'a' = array but 'i' for integer and 'n' for number don't work. Is there a list of type codes somewhere on the php site? I did a search but apparently didn't hit upon the correct phrase as all searches came up with zero results.

The JS code is creating a string in the same way that serialize() does, so that it can be passed through unserialize() to get the actual array. There isn't really a description (that I could find, anyway) in the PHP manual of how serialize() actually stores its values. Take a look at "PHP's Serialization Format", about 1/3 of the way down on this page: http://hurring.com/code/perl/serialize/ Jasper --PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
