How to find and delete object in a JSON archive?

                  {"name":"pepito",
                   "thumbnail":"http://nakome.16mb.com/samples/html/admin/",
                   "description":"Simple"},

                  // Delete this in php ---------
                  {"name":"juanito",  
                   "thumbnail":"http://nakome.16mb.com/samples/html/admin/",
                   "description":"Simple" }
                  // ----------------------------

                 ]
}

Without having to write your own parser (and given it’s php) use json_decode and turn it in to an object you want to work with, use unset then re-json_encode the result.

That would be the easiest way without having to perform string parsing/searches.
