can a JSON start with [?

This is an abbreviated version of my problem.
My json output has comma separated groups, how can i make this work?

$json = '{"foo": "12345"}, {"foo": "6789"}, {"bar": "001100"}';
$obj = json_decode($json);
print $obj[0]->{'foo'};

currently it gives me an error Notice: Trying to get property of non-object

You need to wrap your input in [ and ] to make it a valid array in JSON notation. — mario

Wrap your list into javascript array:

$json = '{"foo": "12345"}, {"foo": "6789"}, {"bar": "001100"}';
$json = '[' . $json . ']';
$obj = json_decode($json);
print $obj[0]->{'foo'};
