Re^3: special characters in parsed json rendering badly in browser by haukex (Archbishop) on Sep 03, 2018 at 09:10 UTC
so \x{2018} is a two-byte encoding of chr(32) and chr(30) Sorry, but no, this is incorrect. `\x{2018}` is not valid JavaScript, so I'm assuming it's Perl. In Perl, `\x{2018}` is interpreted as the Unicode character U+2018, LEFT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK, decimal 8216. Although one normally shouldn't have to worry about the internal encoding Perl uses, here it is anyway: $ perl -CSD -MDevel::Peek -le 'my $x="\x{2018}"; Dump($x); print "<$x>"' SV = PV(0x2147e80) at 0x21675b0 REFCNT = 1 FLAGS = (POK,IsCOW,pPOK,UTF8) PV = 0x21694e0 "\342\200\230"\0 [UTF8 "\x{2018}"] CUR = 3 LEN = 10 COW_REFCNT = 1 <‘> Minor fixes.
