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!
