--- Comment #3 from [email protected] --- I'm using a language (awk) with no native UTF or JSON support so found it needs to pipe through the unix utility iconv eg. > echo '\u00E9' | iconv -f java > é However &utf8=1 is awesome. That saved me from doing the above external program. The link to ietf.org is helpful.. I tried it with the Wikipedia article named "300" (includes quotes): wget -q -O- "http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&page=";'"'"300"'"'"&prop=links&format=json&utf8=1" produces {"parse":{"title":"\"300\"","links": etc.. So it escapes not in UTF-16 Java format but plain backslash. That should make life easier. GreenC -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
