Comment #2 on issue 616 by LasseReichsteinHolstNielsen: JSON.parse doesn't
accept strings contain new lines
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=616
The syntax error is correct.
Newlines are not allowed inside JSON strings (no control characters are,
see, e.g.,
JsonStringCharacter production of ECMA262 5ed, section 15.2.1.1).
If you meant to parse it as a string containing the \n newline escape, the
backslash
needs to be escaped in the string literal (because backslashes have meaning
in
JavaScript string literals too), i.e,
JSON.parse('{ "key": "a\\nb" }');
If Firefox accepts it, it's a bug in Firefox.
