Hi,

On converting JSON to XML using XML ValidatorBuddy as editor, control
characters in the range from 0x01 to 0x1f are converted into a numerical
character entity. However, this is only well-formed for XML 1.1.

Kind regards

Subject: Converting JSON to XML ... how to deal with control characters
present in the JSON?

Hi Folks,

Occasionally I have a JSON file that contains a control character which is
not allowed in XML.

When converting JSON to XML, how do you deal with control characters in
JSON?

Is there a library available that will remove control characters from JSON?

Suppose I convert JSON to XML and then hand the XML off to an XML parser. Is
there an XML parser that will automatically exclude non-XML characters?
