Escape Quote in C# for javascript consumption

Question

I have a ASP.Net web handler that returns results of a query in JSON format

public static String dt2JSON(DataTable dt)
{
    String s = \"{\\\"rows\\\":[\";
         


        

Answer 1

Well, for starters you do not need quotes around the keys.

{rows:[,]} is valid.

and you could dt.Table.Columns[i].ToString().Replace("\","")

But if you want to retain the double quotes, single quote works the same way double quotes do in JS

Otherwise you could do

String.Format("{name: \"{0}\"}",Columns[i].ToString().Replace("\",""))
