[Solved] i have stored array in database as a string how can retrieve that array?

by


use JSON_ENCODE first before saving the array to DB ,then use JSON_DECODE if you want to get again the contents

     $arr = array(
        "item_number1" => "1",
        "payment_date" => "04:21:34 Dec 06, 2014 PST",
        "payment_status" => "Completed",
        "first_name" => "sdfsd",
        "last_name" => "parsdfsdandekar",
        "quantity1" => "1"
     );

     echo json_encode($arr);

Result after JSON_ENCODE (Array to JSON String): 

{ "item_number1" => "1", "payment_date" => "04:21:34 Dec 06, 2014 PST", "payment_status" => "Completed", "first_name" => "sdfsd", "last_name" => "parsdfsdandekar", "quantity1" => "1" }
