How to remove backslash on json_encode() function?

Question

How to remove the (\\)backslash on a string? when using echo json_encode() ?

For example:

Answer 1

If you using PHP 5.2, json_encode just expect only 1 parameter when call it. This is an alternative to unescape slash of json values:

stripslashes(json_encode($array))

Don't use it if your data is complicated.

Answer 2

json_encode($response, JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES);

Answer 3

Yes it's possible. Look!

$str = str_replace('\\', '', $str);

But why would you want to?

Answer 4

Simpler way would be

$mystring = json_encode($my_json,JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES);
