New Comment:
I know it re-enumerates the array. That's what the javascript JSON
encoder does.
But when i think of it. It's probably better how it is.
Thnx for the support.

The problem is that if you save a non-sequential array as an array you
lose the sequence and encoding process re-enumerates the array values
so array(0 => foo, 2 => bar) becomes array(0 => foo, 1 => bar)

Description:
------------
When encoding an array with sequental keys. Everything works out fine.
When encoding an array with gaps between the keys. The json encoder
creates an object instead of an array. Wich maybe ideal in some places.
But it's inconsistant with the JSON javascript parser at json.org. I
selected the PHP 4.4.7 version. But also tested in PHP 5.2.3 with the
same result.
In json.c the following code is causing this:

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
/**
* Create an array with ordered keys from 0 to 1
*/
$main = array();
$element1 = array();
$element2 = array();
$element1[0] = "foo";
$element2[0] = "bar";
$element2[1] = "test";
$main[0] = $element1;
$main[1] = $element2;
echo "Result in array: " . json_encode($main) . "\n";
/**
* Create an array without ordered keys from 0 to 2
*/
$main2 = array();
$element1 = array();
$element2 = array();
$element1[0] = "foo";
$element2[0] = "bar";
$element2[1] = "test";
$main2[0] = $element1;
$main2[2] = $element2;
echo "Result in object: " . json_encode($main2) . "\n";
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Result in array: [["foo"],["bar","test"]]
Result in object: [["foo"],["bar","test"]]
Actual result:
--------------
Result in array: [["foo"],["bar","test"]]
Result in object: {"0":["foo"],"2":["bar","test"]}
