note 91015 added to function.json-decode

@Gravis: using substr( $str, 1, -1 ) is a bit easier to read. In addition your preg_replace() might fail on strings (as values in $str) containing colon as a literal a better parser would properly recognize, e.g. ({title:"Yellow Pages: Who do you want to call today?"}) Aside from that preg_replace() supports "\w" which might reduce your pattern. ---- Server IP: 217.13.201.10 Probable Submitter: 94.222.30.24 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.json-decode.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/91015 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91015/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91015/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91015/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91015/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91015/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91015/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/91015 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/91015 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
