Tom Christie added the comment: I believe the status of this should be reassessed and that python should default to escaping '\u2028' and '\u2029'. *Strictly* speaking this isn't a bug and is per the JSON spec.
*However* this *is* a bug in the JSON spec - which *should* be a strict subset of JSON. Given that both escaped and unescaped are valid, ensuring that those two characters *are* always escaped would clearly be more user-friendly behavior on our part, and *would* lead to less bugs in, say web frameworks that use the JSON module and then pass the output to template (eg populating a javscript variable with some JSON output). ---------- nosy: +tomchristie _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18290> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
