JavaScript does have a concept of an object in its prototype chain. However, it is not captured in JSON, so the part about JSON's object being just an associative array is correct. It makes sense to me that JSON->PHP would produce an associate array. Independent of that, it might be convenient to have a tool that maps associative arrays into objects, but that is not a JSON operation. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
