How to convert this string to array in PHP?
"["COLOR","SIZE","TYPE"]"
I have read so many answers but they have a different string format and also I found the eval() but Im not a fan of it. Thanks in advance.

What format is your string in? If it’s JSON, use [`json_decode`](https://php.net/json_decode). – Ry- Apr 02 '17 at 07:52

And BTW, what you posted here as already an array – Alon Eitan Apr 02 '17 at 07:55

you can do this manually with `str_replace` and `explode`. – Junius L Apr 02 '17 at 07:59

1So as Ryan suggested `print_r(json_decode('["COLOR","SIZE","TYPE"]'))` – Alon Eitan Apr 02 '17 at 08:00
