Bob or Anyone Else Who Might Know,

I'm reading the HTML in a local text file directly into a page JavaScript 
variable using reader.readAsText(buFile, "UTF-8"). When this process reads an 
html SMILES (e.g. C(=C\C)/C), it sure looks like the back slashes are 
automatically escaped for the JavaScript variable. While this is a txt file, it 
has HTML structure. The SMILES is inside a span tag.

When the HTML in the JavaScript variable is rendered as HTML via JavaScript (or 
JQuery), the C(=C\C)/C) is good to go without explicitly doing the character 
escaping.

Does anyone know if this is the cross browser standard for this type of 
operation?
