I have a string a[b][c] and I need to convert it into multidimensional PHP array. Does anybody knows a quick solution for that without using eval()?

    Please show us your string in full and explain what you've already tried... Commented Apr 29, 2014 at 11:03
  • I literally have a string form[auth][key]. I need this parsed into array("form"=>array("auth"=>array("key"))) Commented Apr 29, 2014 at 11:09
  • If it's valid PHP why don't you want to eval() it? If you want to pass data in string format why don't you serialize it? Commented Apr 29, 2014 at 11:18

Ok, I found solution for that:

parse_str("a[b][c]", $result);

Resulted multidimensional array is written into $result variable.
