For example if it's not valid utf8, it returns false (unless ignoring or substitution is enabled). In any case it never returns invalid json atm. I don't think it's a good idea to break that assumption. Cheers Jakub

I tend to agree that it would make sense to validate that the indent only contains whitespace characters, and not . Regards, Nikita
[PHP-DEV] [RFC][Draft] Add json_encode indent parameter
Hi internals, I'd like to present my RFC for adding the indent parameter to the json_encode function: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/json_encode_indentation The `string|int $indent = 4` parameter adds the ability to specify the indentation for the JSON encoder. Amount of spaces can be specified by a number and a string can be specified to set a custom indentation like `\t` or whatever. As this is my first RFC (and contribution) for PHP, I'm all kind of new to the process, standards, etc. Please let me know if I could do something better. Looking forward to feedback/input on the RFC. -- Kind regards, Timon de Groot -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
