but if i want to get player_name variable with this code:

<?  
$js = file_get_contents('http://api.convoytrucking.net/api.php?api_key=public&show=player&player_name=Mick_Gibson');
  $pjs = json_decode($js);
  var_dump($pjs->{'player_name'});
?>

i get error:

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in **\htdocs\index.php on line 9 + var_dump() returns: NULL

var_dump($pjs) returns:

Answer 1

This is because $pjs is an one-element-array of objects, so first you should access the array element, which is an object and then access its attributes.

echo $pjs[0]->player_name;

Actually dump result that you pasted tells it very clearly.

Answer 2

@Balamanigandan your Original Post :- PHP Notice: Trying to get property of non-object error

Your are trying to access the Null Object. From AngularJS your are not passing any Objects instead you are passing the $_GET element. Try by using $_GET['uid'] instead of $objData->token

Answer 3

The response is an array.

var_dump($pjs[0]->{'player_name'});
