Re: JSON and the IFS

[Booth Martin <booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is a copy & paste from a 5250 session:

{"presidents":[
{"name":"George Washington" "life":"1732/1799"},
... 43 lines deleted
]}

The web console reports the error is row 1 col 16. Which is the first 
blank, if I counted right.  Its also a linefeed. I repeated the exercise 
without linefeeds and got the same message.

Part 2:
So then I decided to double check.  I copied the entire file from the 
5250 screens with "Copy Append" and pasted the data into a new JSON file 
on my PC.  It looked fine.  I opened the web page.  No data was 
displayed.  The web console reported a problem at Row 2, column 28; it 
was looking for a "}".  I am satisfied that it is a ccsid issue.  At the 
moment it seems likely the answer lays with learning more about 
configuring the Apache server on the iSeries.
