[SOLVED] How to remove backslash on json_encode() function?

Issue

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

For example:

<?php
$str = "$(\"#output\").append(\"<p>This is a test!</p>\")";

echo json_encode($str);
?>

note: When you echo $str, there will be no problem… but when you echo out using json_encode(), the (\)backslash will show up.

Is there a way to solve this?

Solution

json_encode($response, JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES);
