Re: Help receiving JSON into CGI program

We have been providing some web services by receiving simple not encoded
comma delimited lists in CGI programs and responding with Scott Klement's
version of YAJL. This has been working well for us for several years.



Now we need to do a few more complicated things including receiving names
and addresses with spaces and punctuation. We found in testing that these
fields come to our RPG program encoded. We thought that if the data was
sent
as a JSON payload that we could then process it. However, we don't really
understand how to get the decoded JSON payload from the web to our RPG
program We have done significant research, but are not really web
programmers. Can someone offer us a solution or maybe share a configuration
and/or a program where a JSON payload is successfully passed to RPG from
CGI?



Thanks,

Alvin
