How can I decode json in PHP 5.1?

Question

json_decode function is not part of PHP 5.1, so I cannot use it. Is there any other function for this version?

Answer 1

code

'; 
            else                         $out .= $json[$i];            
        } 
        else $out .= $json[$i]; 
        if ($json[$i] == '"')    $comment = !$comment; 
    } 
    eval($out . ';'); 
    return $x; 
}  
} 
?>

warning

this is untested, I found it on the internet
