Reproduce code: --------------- echo json_encode(array(1 => new stdClass(), 2 => new stdClass(), 3 => new stdClass())); $m = array(); $m[1] = new stdClass(); $m[2] = new stdClass(); $m[3] = new stdClass(); echo json_encode($m); $m = array_values($m); echo json_encode($m); unset($m[0]); echo json_encode((array) $m); Expected result: ---------------- ["1":{},"2":{},"3":{}] ["1":{},"2":{},"3":{}] [{},{},{}] ["1":{},"2":{}] Actual result: -------------- {"1":{},"2":{},"3":{}} {"1":{},"2":{},"3":{}} [{},{},{}] {"1":{},"2":{}} ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45162&edit=1
