From: glideraerobatics at hotmail dot com Operating system: PHP version: 5.2.9RC1 PHP Bug Type: JSON related Bug description: Feature request: add 3rd optional argument - the character encoding
Description: ------------ Feature request As you can see here: http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/function.json-encode.php people are jumping through hoops to encode variables of non-utf8 encodings into JSON format. Why not just centralize that magic into the function itself as a new 3rd optional argument $encoding that defaults to UTF-8?
