I want to decode the JSON data and store it in to an array using json_decode function but it's return NULL Value. I think it's because of UTF-8 BOM. Any Solution ? Im using Windows7 OS with xampp. I set my Encoding to
header('Content-type:application/json; charset=utf-8');
JSON DATA
{"command":"E101","user_id":"someuser","movie_id":"1","link_id":"2"}
JSON Error: Control character error, possibly incorrectly encoded
$json_errors = array(
JSON_ERROR_NONE => 'No error has occurred',
JSON_ERROR_DEPTH => 'The maximum stack depth has been exceeded',
JSON_ERROR_CTRL_CHAR => 'Control character error, possibly incorrectly encoded',
JSON_ERROR_SYNTAX => 'Syntax error',
);
echo 'Last error : ', $json_errors[json_last_error()], PHP_EOL, PHP_EOL;
IF I Parse this JSON, No error Occured
{"command":"E101","user_id":"someuser","movie_id":"movie_id","link_id":"link_id"}
The Only difference is Im storing string data in to movie_id and link_id . Why this happened ?
JSON Data Bin2Hex() 7b22636f6d6d616e64223a2245313031222c226d6f7669655f6964223a226d6f7669655f6964222c226c696e6b5f6964223a226c696e6b5f6964227d00000000
Im Encrypting the JSON data and via client side, im decrypting at the server side.
Here goes my Encryption function
public function ajax_enc($data){
$vector = "myvector";
$filter = new Zend_Filter_Encrypt(array('adapter' => 'mcrypt', 'key' => $this->_AJAXKEY));
$filter->setVector($vector);
$encrypted = $filter->filter($data);
// bin2hex for user use case
return bin2hex($encrypted); // rawurlencode(..) works
}
Decrypt
public function ajax_dec($data)
{
$vector = "myvector";
$filter = new Zend_Filter_Decrypt(array('adapter' => 'mcrypt', 'key' => $this->_AJAXKEY ));
$filter->setVector($vector);
$decoded = pack('H*', $data);
$decrypted = $filter->filter($decoded);
return $decrypted;
}
