    <p>You can use the <strong><a href="http://www.php.net/json_decode" rel="noreferrer"><code>json_decode</code></a></strong> function to decode the JSON string :</p> <pre><code>$json = &lt;&lt;&lt;JSON { "programmers": [ { "firstName": "Brett", "lastName":"McLaughlin" }, { "firstName": "Jason", "lastName":"Hunter" }, { "firstName": "Elliotte", "lastName":"Harold" } ], "authors": [ { "firstName": "Isaac", "lastName": "Asimov" }, { "firstName": "Tad", "lastName": "Williams" }, { "firstName": "Frank", "lastName": "Peretti" } ], "musicians": [ { "firstName": "Eric", "lastName": "Clapton" }, { "firstName": "Sergei", "lastName": "Rachmaninoff" } ] } JSON; $data = json_decode($json); </code></pre> <p><br> Then, to see what the data looks like, you can dump it :</p> <pre><code>var_dump($data); </code></pre> <p><br> And you'll see you have an object containing three arrays, each one containing other sub-objects :</p> <pre><code>object(stdClass)[1] public 'programmers' =&gt; array 0 =&gt; object(stdClass)[2] public 'firstName' =&gt; string 'Brett' (length=5) public 'lastName' =&gt; string 'McLaughlin' (length=10) 1 =&gt; object(stdClass)[3] public 'firstName' =&gt; string 'Jason' (length=5) public 'lastName' =&gt; string 'Hunter' (length=6) ... public 'authors' =&gt; array 0 =&gt; object(stdClass)[5] public 'firstName' =&gt; string 'Isaac' (length=5) public 'lastName' =&gt; string 'Asimov' (length=6) ... </code></pre> <p>Which means you know how to access your data.</p> <p><br> For example, to display the list of the programmers, you could use :</p> <pre><code>foreach ($data-&gt;programmers as $programmer) { echo $programmer-&gt;firstName . ' ' . $programmer-&gt;lastName . '&lt;br /&gt;'; } </code></pre> <p><br> Which would get you the following output :</p> <pre><code>Brett McLaughlin Jason Hunter Elliotte Harold </code></pre>
