I have the following json file with several information needed in my JS application.
Example:
var stuff = {"id":"stuff_1","text":"Insert text here","correct":"true","x":"283","y":"180"};
var points= ['123','1566','125667','433456'];
Need to read the file with PHP and only return one of the variables as request.
PHP's function 'json_decode()' doesn't work since it isn't JSON. I cannot modify the file described above. The client demands to be as is.
How can it be done?
Thanks in advance

It's not valid JSON. Use this JavaScript code and json_decode in PHP will work:
{
"cenas": {"id":"cenas","text":"Insert text here","correct":"true","x":"283","y":"180"},
"points": ["123","1566","125667","433456"]
}
(Also notice the double quotes instead of single)
The file you have is simply javascript. If the content is static, you can link it directly
<script src="scripts/mysnippet.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script>
alert('yay, i can see: ' + cenas.id);
</script>
Or if it is dynamic, you can use javascript to link it at runtime.
<script>
// inject js
var snippet = document.createElement("script");
snippet.type = "text/javascript";
snippet.src="http://url-to-snippet/mysnippet.js";
document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(snippet);
window.onload = function(){
alert('yay i can use ' + cenas.id);
};
</script>
