Thanks Thierry - jq looks fantastic. Needs to be a new LCB library for sure. But for now I need to get JSON in and out of Livecode arrays on the server.
Monte's external is available for all platforms - so it should work on the server I think the the "mergJSON.so" is the version I believe that is used on Linux. Puttin it in the cgi bin along side the built in externals does not seem to be sufficient. How does basic extension configuration work on a server?
