Because "that one" (the second sample shown) was (a) valid and (b) had
no unnecessary punctuation. As result, I could not tell what the OP

How can I carefully strip unnecessary punctuation?
The unnecessary [] that you get is for you use an array to store things >inside, use a class object instead.
Here is a small example, where only the cart is an array in the json:
--- start of php ---
$a = new class{};
store_id = "123";// add item to cart that cast an array to object
api_token = "432";
cart = array();
cart[] = (object)[ "value" => "12.01", "item" => "banana" ];// add item to cat that is an undefined object
$itemObj = new class{};
$itemObj->value = "10.02";
$itemObj->item = "apple";
cart[] = $itemObj;echo json_encode($a, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);
--- eof ---
Only use array when you are to have a collection of items, for example a >shopping cart, but do not use array when you have a single item, then
better to use an object of some sort, for your example I would actually >create classes that describes the json, you will of course have nested >objects in the end.

If you are thinking of post value which is an array, then the simplest
would be:
cart = (object)$_POST['cart']; // this may give you object you don'twant
Just keep in mind that the data is unsafe to use, you should do the long
way and validate the data and as you validate you can then add the
values to a temp variable and if all the cart items passes validation,
then add it to the main json object (in this silly example the $a).
If you get a new cart posted (updates), then replace the current one
you have in the session, don't forget to validate the data before you
replace the cart section. Only have the latest validated one
cart = $validated_shopping_cart; // validated_shopping_cart is ajson object
for duplicate entries you have to decide what to do, cast an error or
merge them together, that is up to you, but do not have duplicate items
in your json object.
I hope that was the answer you was looking for.

It's messy and a lot of hard coded things and I'm just guessing what you
try to do, I think I would have done things differently, for example
posting all the data maybe as a serialized json object from the client
side, I would fetch the items value from the database together with >description, I would have the tax rate in the database too, easy to
change the the tax in the database when the the government changes it.
I made an small example that take the cart part, not sure if it's what
you want to have, but at least should give you some idea and the reason
I didn't use $_POST values is that it's easier to test things when you
can modify values based on what you want and fine tune things till they
are right, then you can modify the constructor to not take any
arguments, I would make the "cart" class to hold all the values you need
for your json.
If you need to use values between functions, then use private, for then
they will not be included when you use the json_encode()
--- simple example ---
<?php
class cart {
public $total = 0;
public $items = [];
private $uber = "man"; // this will not be included in the json output
public function __construct($quantityArray, $gstArray, $descArray,
$idArray) {
foreach($quantityArray as $key => $num_items)
{
if($num_items == 0)
continue;
$has_tax = isset($gstArray[$key]);
$unit_cost = $has_tax ? 63 : 60;
$sub_total = $num_items * $unit_cost;
$this->total = $sub_total;
$item = [
'url' =>
'https://www.pdsolutions.ca/images/newwhiteheader.png',
'description' => $descArray[$key],
'product_code' => $idArray[$key],
'unit_cost' => number_format($unit_cost, 2),
'quantity' => $num_items,
'subtotal' => number_format($sub_total, 2),
];
if($has_tax) {
$item['tax'] = (object)[ 'amount' =>
number_format($sub_total * 0.05), 'description' => "GST", 'rate' =>
'5.00' ];
}
$this->items[] = (object)$item;
}
}
}
$q = [1, 2, 0];
$g = [1, 1, 0];
$d = ['banana', 'apple', 'car'];
$i = [22, 11, 33];
$cart = new cart($q, $g, $d, $i);
echo json_encode($cart, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);
--- eof ---
You can also see the use of number_format(), that just so we get the
right number of decimals, I haven't bothered about rounding which would
be sane. And it's the "items" that should be something similar to your cart.

Hopefully you understand the idea now - if you don't want an ARRAY in
the JSON then do not create one! If the specification asks for an OBJECT
then use an OBJECT based on a class with named members.

But The information is being pulled from a pre-filled hence you need, Something like
//$items=array(
if (isset($_POST["submit"])){
foreach ($_POST['quantity'] as $key => $value) {
if( $value > 0){
if(isset($_POST['with_gst'][$key])){
$unit_cost = 63.00;
}else{
$unit_cost = 60.00; //no gst included
}
$newsubtotal = ($unit_cost * $value);
$quantity = ($value);
$itemssubarray[]= array(
$cartarray[] = array(
"cart"=>array( $items
),
'subtotal' => $subtotal,
"tax"=>array(
'amount' => ($subtotal * 0.05),
'description' => "GST",
'rate' => "5.00",
),
);

So what? You can also create objects based on "pre-filled" data.
//$items=array(
if (isset($_POST["submit"])){
foreach ($_POST['quantity'] as $key => $value) {
if( $value > 0){
if(isset($_POST['with_gst'][$key])){
$unit_cost = 63.00;
}else{
$unit_cost = 60.00; //no gst included
}
$newsubtotal = ($unit_cost * $value);
$quantity = ($value);
$itemssubarray[]= array(
CREATE AN OBJECT HERE!
First define a class for this above all the code:
class CartItem
{
public $url;
public $description;
public $product_code;
public $unit_cost;
public $quantity;
}
And then use THIS(!) to create the OBJECT(!) for it:
$item = new Item();
$item->url = "https://www.pdsolutions.ca/images/newwhiteheader.png"; >$item->description = $_POST['description'][$key];
$item->product_code = $_POST['id'][$key];
$item->unit_cost = $unit_cost;
$item->quantity = $quantity;
$itemssubarray[] = $item;
[...]
$cartarray[] = array(
"cart"=>array( $items
),
NO! Create an OBJECT!
'subtotal' => $subtotal,
"tax"=>array(
'amount' => ($subtotal * 0.05),
'description' => "GST",
'rate' => "5.00",
),
);
Sorry - but if you are really not able to understand what I write, you
should pay someone to do the job for you.

The problem is the way the supplier wants to oush the information.

You need to follow the api requierment which says that the json should
have an array of json objects, not an array of arrya with array.
Your task is to take the posted value convert it to be in the format
that the api requiers.
Using classes will make the code more readable and you can break things
up into smaller chunks when you are writing your code. I think it's
beter to transform things into a variable and then assing it to the
object's variable to make the assignment clear and simple. Don't forget
that the classes can include arrays, but only use those in the places
where you need it, IMHO it can be sometimes good to iniate the array in
the class constructor (this only can be done as long as the api don't
require the array to be omitted if no values).
Don't forget that the company providing the API also has a support team
which can help, sure it may come with a cost, depending on the deggree
of help and how much they think is out of topic. For them it's importnat
to earn money and if they think helpiing you will give them enough money
in return, they may help more than they normal support is mandated to do.
