Read associative array from json in $_POST

问题:

I am using jQuery to post a json object to my php application.

jQuery.post("save.php",JSON.stringify(dataToSend), function(data){ alert(data); });

The json string as pulled from firebug looks like this

{ "data" : [ { "contents" : "This is some content",
        "selector" : "DIV.subhead"
      },
      { "contents" : "some other content",
        "selector" : "LI:nth-child(1) A"
      }
    ],
  "page" : "about_us.php"
}

In php I am trying to turn this into an associative array.

My php code so far is

<?php
$value = json_decode(stripcslashes($_POST));
echo $value['page'];
?>

The response to the ajax call should be "about_us.php" but it comes back blank.

回答1:

You can avoid to use JSON.stringify and json_decode:

jQuery.post("save.php", dataToSend, function(data){ alert(data); });

And:

<?php
echo $_POST['page'];
?>

Update:

... but if your really want to use them, then:

jQuery.post("save.php",  {json: JSON.stringify(dataToSend)}, function(data){ alert(data); });

And:

<?php
$value = json_decode($_POST['json']);
echo $value->page;
?>

回答2:

$_POST will not be populated if the request body is not in the standard urlencoded form.

Instead, read from the read-only php://input stream like this to get the raw request body:

$value = json_decode(file_get_contents('php://input'));

回答3:

Pass the second argument as true if you want the associative array otherwise it will keep returning object.

$value = json_decode(stripslashes($_POST),true);

回答4:

Try:

echo $value->page;

since json_decode's default behaviour is to return an object of type stdClass.

Alternatively, set the second optional $assoc argument to true:

$value = json_decode(stripslashes($_POST), true);
echo $value['page'];

回答5:

It looks like jQuery might encode a javascript object in urlencoded form then would be populated into $_POST. At least from their examples. I'd try passing in your object into post() without stringifying it.

If you want to use json data as an associative array, you can try as following:

<?php 

$json = 'json_data'; // json data

$obj = jsondecode($json, true); // decode json as associative array 

// now you can use different values as 
echo $obj['json_string']; // will print page value as 'about_us.php' 


for example: 

$json = { "data" : [ { "contents" : "This is some content",
    "selector" : "DIV.subhead"
   },
   { "contents" : "some other content",
    "selector" : "LI:nth-child(1) A"
   }
  ],
"page" : "about_us.php"
}

$obj = json_decode($json, true); 

/* now to print contents from data */

echo $obj['data']['contents']; 
 // thats all 
?>
