note 76685 added to function.json-decode

It took me a while to find the right JSON string format grabbed from mysql to be used in json_decode(). Here is what i came up with: Bad(s) (return NULL): {30:'13',31:'14',32:'15'} {[30:'13',31:'14',32:'15']} {["30":"13","31":"14","32":"15"]} Good : [{"30":"13","31":"14","32":"15"}] returns: array(1) { [0]=> array(3) { [30]=> string(2) "13" [31]=> string(2) "14" [32]=> string(2) "15" } } hope this saves sometime.. ---- Server IP: 66.207.199.35 Probable Submitter: 142.179.87.190 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.json-decode.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/76685 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76685/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76685/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76685/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76685/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76685/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76685/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/76685 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/76685 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
