Echo element from php array

Question

Can someone tell me how I can loop through the below array?

I've tried with out luck:

$_data = json_decode($_data);
foreach ( $_data as $tweet )
{
    echo "{$tweet->text}\n";
}

thanks

ps: im follwoing this php script. http://mikepultz.com/2013/06/mining-twitter-api-v1-1-streams-from-php-with-oauth/

hers another paste bin on the array. there seems to be multiple arrays happening http://pastebin.com/dduzhpqY

Where is it coming from? Something went wrong decoding it, see those => everywhere? That doesn't look right... What errors are you getting? — elclanrs

Just tried and it doesn't seem to work. If I print that I get the error message "Trying to get property of non-object" so i guessing its not an object but an array? so I tried $_data['text'] — user2541153

It looks like you might be creating a PHP stnd object instead of an array

//this will create a php standard object
$objOfData=json_decode($json);

Instead Use the version below: (Notice the the 2nd parameter is TRUE)

$associativeArray=json_decode($json, TRUE);

This will turn the object into an associative array and you can access fields like so:

$id=$associativeArray['id'];

More info here: json_decode

I think i'm doing in correctly but something must be wrong. ' $data = json_decode($json, TRUE); if ($data) { // process it $this->process_tweet($data); }' then ' private function process_tweet($_data) { echo $_data['text']; }'

The code in posted link is not JSON, but it is output of print_r() function. PHP has no invert function to print_r(), but on php.net in print_r() documentation's comments you can find some user-made functions which can read it.

For example this one: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.print-r.php#93529

I hope it will help. Good Luck :)

Ended up using:

if(array_key_exists('text', $_data)){
        echo 'Tweet ID = '.$_data['id_str'];
        echo 'Tweet Text = '.$_data['text'];
        echo '<br /><br />';
    }

cheers
