What a waste of time and processing power
Embrace JSON, it really does make life super easy....
And for whatever server side code you use, there are libraries out
there to *automatically* convert your objects and results into
perfectly valid JSON strings, there's no need to worry about messing
up "(" and {" and the like.....
Whatever though, it's your time and effort... but you seriously are
making things much harder on yourself than need be
