note 95782 added to function.json-decode

For those of you wanting json_decode to be a little more lenient (more like Javascript), here is a wrapper: <?php function json_decode_nice($json, $assoc = FALSE){ $json = str_replace(array("\n","\r"),"",$json); $json = preg_replace('/([{,])(\s*)([^"]+?)\s*:/','$1"$3":',$json); return json_decode($json,$assoc); } ?> Some examples of accepted syntax: <?php $json = '{a:{b:"c",d:["e","f",0]}}'; $json = '{ a : { b : "c", "d.e.f": "g" } }'; ?> If your content needs to have newlines, do this: <?php $string = "This Text Has Newlines"; $json = '{withnewlines:'.json_encode($string).'}'; ?> Note: This does not fix trailing commas or single quotes. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 68.52.135.113 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.json-decode.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/95782 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95782/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95782/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95782/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95782/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95782/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95782/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/95782 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/95782 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
