I have a json file with this element:
{
"id":"1",
"nombre":"Luis",
"Descripción":"Alumno"
}
The php file looks like this:
<?php
$json = file_get_contents("json.json");
$data = json_decode($json,true);
var_dump($data);
?>
Well, the var_dump tells me it's NULL. Any solution?
To mount the json the fields must be encoded in utf-8. An example:
$result = array();
$result['id'] = (int)1;
$result['nombre'] = utf8_encode("Luis");
$result['descripcion'] = utf8_encode("Alumno"); //mejor no uses tildes en el nombre del campo
header("Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8");
echo json_encode($result);
And then you read it with your php file. json_decode requires the encoding to be utf-8.
$json = file_get_contents("json.php");
var_dump($json);
$data = json_decode($json,true);
var_dump($data);
Now it should work.
