> Hello,
> There is a problem with org.apache.struts2.json.JSONValidationInterceptor
> This class is using StringEscapeUtils.escapeEcmaScript(String) to escape the
> generated JSON string.
> The problem is that StringEscapeUtils.escapeEcmaScript escapes the
> apostrophes. Some JSON implementations accept the escaped apostrophes but
> some other don't and they are not able to parse the JSON.
> I think there should be at least an option to disable apostrophe escaping.
> But as I believe escaping apostrophe is not part of the JSON specifications,
> the best would be to not allow apostrophe escaping.
> As an example, here is a JSON string generated by the JSON plugin :
> {code}
> {
> "fieldErrors": {
> "password": [
> "Password isn\'t correct"
> ]
> }
> }
> {code}
> If you test it on http://jsonlint.com/, it says the syntax is incorrect.
> Thanks.
