[Seaside] JSON encoding help.

[Nick Ager]

Hi Paul,

Did you solve this problem? If not perhaps there's no need to encode the
elements of the Dictionary separately. Perhaps something like:


renderContentOn: html
|event1 events|

event1:=Dictionary new.
event1 at: 'title' put:'event1'.
event1 at:'start' put:'2010-06-20'.

html div
   id:'calendar';
   script: (html jQuery this fullCalendar theme:true).
   html script:( (html jQuery id:'calendar') fullCalendar events:(event1
asJson) )

or even try without the asJson.

It looks as though your Dictionary is Jsonified/Javascriptified three times.

Compare the output of:

event1:=Dictionary new.
event1 at: 'title' put:'event1'.
event1 at:'start' put:'2010-06-20'.
event1 asJson

with:

event1:=Dictionary new.
event1 at: 'title' put:'event1'.
event1 at:'start' put:'2010-06-20'.
event1 asJson asJson asJson

Hope this helps

Nick
