PHP json_decode（）无法解码JSON数组

Question

I have a JSON string in my database such as this...

a:1:{s:26:"abcdefghi@jklmnopqrstu.com";s:26:"abcdefghi@jklmnopqrstu.com";}

After I fetch it from the database I use the following...

$my_array = json_decode($row2['json_data']);

The problem is that I'm not getting any array from $my_array . What am I doing wrong?

I've also tried the following...

$my_array = json_decode($row2['json_data'],true);

Answer 1

That's not a JSON string. That's a serialized array. You need to do the following:

$my_array = unserialize($row2['json_data']);
