json_decode to array

Question

I am trying to decode a JSON string into an array but i get the following error.

Fatal error: Cannot use object of type stdClass as array in C:\wamp\www\temp\asklaila.php on line 6

Here is the code:

<?php $json_string = 'http://www.domain.com/jsondata.json';  $jsondata = file_get_contents($json_string); $obj = json_decode($jsondata); print_r($obj['Result']); ?> 

Answer 1

As per the documentation, you need to specify true as the second argument if you want an associative array instead of an object from json_decode. This would be the code:

$result = json_decode($jsondata, true); 

If you want integer keys instead of whatever the property names are:

$result = array_values(json_decode($jsondata, true)); 

However, with your current decode you just access it as an object:

print_r($obj->Result); 

Answer 2

try this

$json_string = 'http://www.domain.com/jsondata.json'; $jsondata = file_get_contents($json_string); $obj = json_decode($jsondata,true); echo "<pre>"; print_r($obj);
