json_encode and decode help

[eluser]NachoF[/eluser]
I have been building my app and it uses json_encode to provide ajax data and many places.
Now I learned that the server will be php 5.1.6 which doesnt suppor these methods... what can I do!?

Hi NachoF,

in case your data is not too complex you can manually
build your json data and return it via echo. I even read
that there is a library out there which can do that for
you. For flat results it's pretty easy to do it yourself.

Or switch to using serialize and unserialize instead of json_encode / decode...
