I am surprised that none of the major JSON parsers would not have any means (either directly or by being called by an XML/HTML parser) to process JSON embedded inside XML or HTML. Ultimately, I agree it should not be necessary to resort to such schemes as a means to work around bad behavior. Nevertheless, I find it hard to imagine that noone would never come up with a legitimate reason to embed JSON into XML or HTML. If Javascript can be embedded in a webpage, why not JSON? FYI, where I work, we are required to code defensively, so I have acquired a tendancy to look for problems so I can better defend against them. Nothing's perfect, of course. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
