Sending & (and) sign over cURL with JSON

I'm sending an array with data over cURL to another server (with PHP). Code before sending:

$array = array('title' => "M&M's milk chocolate");
$data = json_encode($array);

and code on the other side

$data = json_decode($_POST);

If there is and (&) sign in array, the $data on other side is empty.

How can I fix it? Thanks!

Html encoding the data should work for you.

$array = array('title' => urlencode("M&M's milk chocolate"));
$data = json_encode($array);

And on the receiving end:

$data = json_decode($_POST);
$title = urldecode($data['title']);
