ID: 52262 Updated by: scott...@php.net Reported by: r...@php.net Summary: json_decode reports no error while returning NULL -Status: Assigned +Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: JSON related Operating System: Linux/Ubuntu PHP Version: 5.3.2 Assigned To: scottmac New Comment: It now correctly returns an error code to indicate an invalid UTF-8 error. The issue is an incorrectly encoded character around number 21,190. I suggest you speak to Steam and get them to produce a correctly valid feed.

The JSON is returned successfully by file_get_contents, and is valid according to JSONLint. What I expect to happen is for the JSON to be correctly decoded, or NULL to be returned and json_last_error to be populated with the reason. For some reason NULL is returned and json_last_error remains at 0. I have a feeling that this could be to do with the length of the file (containing a large array of objects).
