Before PHP 5.2, you can use the JSON PECL extension.
In fact, it is the extension that has been integrated into PHP 5.2 (quoting) :
Some other solutions would be to use some component developped in PHP.
Some time ago (about one year ago), I used the
Zend_Jsoncomponent of Zend Framework, with PHP 5.1.Even if Zend Framework requires PHP 5.2, that component can be extracted (I think it depends only on one other component — maybe
Zend_Exception, or something like that) — and one year ago, it was possible to use it with PHP 5.1.The [official JSON website][4] also links to several PHP-based or PHP-oriented components — you might want to take a look at that list.
