解析具有逗号和引号的JSON文本

Question

I got an "Parse error" on the following JSON object. Wonder how to fix it.

 { "Information": [ { "nm": "Earn Goody", "st": "y", "source": "Internet", "story": [ { "Don't let the smile fool you. Sabine Lisicki is the proverbial "crazy guy in the fight," at least when grass courts are involved. Perhaps the only player capable of keeping up with Serena Williams from a power-and-movement standpoint, Lisicki not only kept up, she beat Williams, 6-2, 1-6, 6-4, in the Round of 16 at Wimbledon on Monday.", "Women's tennis had, like men's tennis, grown predictable recently, with either Williams, Maria Sharapova, or Victoria Azarenka winning the last six slam titles." } ] } ] } 

Result:

{
    "Information": [
        {
            "nm": "Earn Goody",
            "st": "y",
            "source": "Internet",
            "story": [
                {
                    "Don't let the smile fool you. Sabine Lisicki is the proverbial crazyguyinthefight at least when grass courts are involved.

                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Answer 1

The "JSON" data string at Information[0]/story[0] contains unescaped quotes ( " ). That's not valid JSON.

Somewhere around here: . . . proverbial "crazy guy in the fight," at least . . .

The quotes inside of your data string should instead be escaped ( \\" ).

Like this: . . . proverbial \\"crazy guy in the fight,\\" at least . . .

Furthermore , the story[0] JSON object contains fields without names - also invalid. You can just put a JSON string inside of curly brackets ( { "abc" } ). A JSON object is a collection of key-value pairs where they key is a JSON string ( { "some-key": "abc" } ).

In general, refer to here: http://json.org/

Answer 2

You probably want the story array to contain string values? in that case, remove the curly barces "{}" inside the array.

The other comments on the quoting also apply, but the error message is related to the invalid array format. See JSON.org
