Question

I’ve got problem with using Json from : http://api.justin.tv/api/stream/list.json?channel=Herdyn , I need get some information about Live Stream.
My code :

<?php
$json = file_get_contents('http://api.justin.tv/api/stream/list.json?channel=Herdyn');
$obj = json_decode($json);

echo $obj->{'name'};
?>

When i upload it on server : http://blx.patrikpapso.com/herdyn/ , no error, just blank page, don’t know what to do…

Answer 1

Do var_dump($obj); and you will see that there is no property “name”. The JSON is an array that contains an object with such a property:

$firstObj = $obj[0];
echo $firstObj->name;

or even

echo $obj[0]->name;

There is supposed to be at least an E_NOTICE though.
