<h5>
What is JSONLint?
</h5>
<div>
<p>
JSONLint is a validator and reformatter for <a href="http://www.json.org/">JSON</a>, a lightweight data-interchange format.
</p>
</div>
<h5>
Why 'Lint'?
</h5>
<div>
<p>
Essentially, I'm just riding on <a href="http://www.jslint.com">JSLint's</a> coattails. The name 'lint' was originally used to find problems in C source files. It's not really valid here because JSON is just a protocol. Shameless? You bet!
</p>
</div>
<h5>
Why does it reformat my JSON?
</h5>
<div>
<p>
Because your code is ugly! Trust me on this one. What's that you say? It's not? Ok, well then here's <a href="http://www.jsonlint.com/?reformat=no">JSON Lint without the reformatter.</a>
</p>
</div>
<h5>
Any secret features?
</h5>
<div>
<p>
Sure, two. You can input a URL and it'll scrape it for JSON and parse that.<br>
An example URL to test: <a href="#" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/redditUrlInput'); $('#json_input').val('http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/9szpc/jsonlint_a_handy_json_validator_and_reformatter.json');">http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/9szpc/jsonlint_a_handy_json_validator_and_reformatter.json</a>
</p>
<p>
Additionally, <a href="http://www.jsonlint.com/?reformat=compress">JSON Lint can also be used as a json compressor if you add ?reformat=compress to the URL.</a>
</p>
</div>
<h5>
What are some common errors?
</h5>
<div>
<dl>
<dt>
<code>Expecting 'STRING'</code>
</dt>
<dd>
You probably have an extra comma at the end of your collection. Something like: <code>{ "a": "b"<span class="highlight">,</span> }</code>
</dd>
<dt>
<code>Expecting 'STRING', 'NUMBER', 'NULL', 'TRUE', 'FALSE', '{', '['</code>
</dt>
<dd>
You probably have an extra comma at the end of your list. Something like: <code>[ "a", "b"<span class="highlight">,</span> ]</code>
<br />
You also may have not enclosed your collection keys in quotes. Proper format for a collection is: <code>{ "key": "value" }</code>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
Be sure to follow <a href="http://www.json.org/">JSON's syntax</a> properly. For example, <strong>always use double quotes, always quotify your keys, and remove all callback functions</strong>.
</p>
</div>
<h5>
A friend and I pasted the same JSON in and got different results. Wat do?
</h5>
<div>
<p>
If you and your friend are on different systems (Win/Unix), this is possible due to the way windows handles newlines. Essentially, if you have just newline characters (\n) in your JSON and paste it into JSONLint from a windows machine, it can validate it as valid erroneously since Windows may need a carriage return (\r) as well to detect newlines properly.
</p>
<p>
The solution: Either use direct URL input, or make sure your content's newlines match the architecture your system expects!
</p>
</div>
<h5>
Who made this?
</h5>
<div>
<p>
I'm <a href="http://www.umbrae.net/">Chris Dary</a>, just one of the kids at the <a href="http://lab.arc90.com">Arc90 Lab</a>. Much is owed to the community (this uses <a href="https://github.com/zaach/jsonlint">Zach Conner's javascript Pure JS JSON parser</a>, for example).
