Hey Pluggers, I need some quick reference help in PHP. Apparently I can't think how to compose the right Google query at the moment. I must need to practice my GoogleFoo more. :S
I have a program that I'm writing in PHP. It needs to reference a 3rd party API. However, that API wants to return most of the values I'm looking as what I think are JSON dictionaries. This is something I've never dealt with (or even heard of) before. How in the heck do you access a part of a JSON dictionary? For example, given the following: var_dump($api->cur_bal()); {'timestamp': '139396594', 'acct1': { 'available' : '12594.56', 'pending' : '415.4264' }, 'reserve' : { 'available' : '175.11' }} How would I access, for example, the value of 'pending' under 'acct1'? Or the 'available' under reserve? Any good web sites (specific URLs needed, please!) that could also explain what a JSON is and how it gets used would be greatly appreciated. Thanks folks! --- Dan /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
