Hi, I''m outputting some database objects as static JSON files using a stand along ruby script.rb, that other could run outside of my rails app. When I use this script, the output replaces "&" with "\u0026."

If a cookie has several items, and is encoded as JSON text as the value of the cookie, the order is actually apparent in the cookie''s text But if JSON.decode is used: ActiveSupport::JSON.decode(cookies[''item_list'']) and the result is actually in a hash, then the ordering is lost...

Hey, I was thinking I''d have my controllers do double-duty: the same actions handling json and html requests differentially. For this, it''s useful that Rails 3.2 automatic params hash conversion from json work (as described here<http://guides.rubyonrails.org/v3.2.13/action_controller_overview.html#json-xml-parameters>in the Rails docs).

Hey, I''ve tried every trick I can find, yet I''m still unable to get the json gem and ActiveSupport to play nice.

Hello, I''m able to create and send a JSON object like so: @mylist << { :id => item.id, :name => name.id } render :json => { :result => ''success'', :mylist => @mylist } That works great. Problem I''m having now is that I need to include users which can be 1 or users per item. @mylist << {

Hi, I''m on Rails 3.2.8 and one of my apps sends some json to create DB objects. What''s the best way to sanitize json? I found this post claiming that for json we need to escape manually since json_escape is broken: http://blog.bigbinary.com/2012/05/10/xss-and-rails.html I tried using the sanitize gem (https://github.com/rgrove/sanitize/) but when using it on a json string it
