Programatically, or will a linter such as [JSONLint](http://jsonlint.com/) suffice? – Moob Oct 16 '13 at 13:38

Do you want to verify the syntax or the content (property names and types)? – mcrumley Oct 16 '13 at 13:57

Use json_decode($string); to convert the JSON string into native PHP. If NULL is returned the string cannot be decoded. You can then use json_last_error() to get the error code, which may be helpful.

For strict JSON validation, you must use `is_object($result) || is_array($result)`. Simple values like strings or numbers are allowed by `json_decode()` and many other parsers but are not strictly valid JSON. For looser validation checking for `NULL` is fine. – mcrumley Oct 18 '13 at 16:19
