Upgrading JSON Encode php 5.2

Question

JSON encode for php 5.2 seems to be buggy. I need a way to upgrade it to php 5.3+ without changing my PHP version, is this possible? If so how?

Thanks

Found the problem - it was an encoding problem in the end with my string. Use:

iconv('Windows-1252', 'UTF-8', $string);

Jsonencode fails if your string is not properly encoded.

I don't know what bugs your getting, but someong at php.net wrote a function for version before 5.2, maybe that will work for you, just give it a new name like "myjson"
