How can individual elements be accessed from a JSON structure in PHP?

To access individual elements from a JSON structure in PHP, you can use the `json_decode()` function to convert the JSON string into an associative array. Once you have the array, you can access individual elements using array notation.

$jsonString = '{"name": "John", "age": 30, "city": "New York"}';
$data = json_decode($jsonString, true);

echo $data['name']; // Output: John
echo $data['age']; // Output: 30
echo $data['city']; // Output: New York
