Thanks for the reply, it's working out fine so far. Is there any rules on special characters or what not when using JSON decode function? I've noticed that some of the arrays are placed inside arrays unnecessarily (eg: [[[test],1]] extra brackets around outside array) - is there anyway i can delete an array if its not containing anything but a single array within it?

Hi, A piece of software I'm using an array is made that looks like the following: [["Select","Vehicle",0.142933,[0.15,0.4,0.05,0.01]]] How would I be best parsing it so: Square brackets currently showing an array becomes an array within PHP Text strings surrounded by "quotations" lose the quotation mark when stored in the PHP array Numbers remain as values in the PHP array The arrays can become quite large, so which would be the best way to go about it?
