Parsing malformed JSON in JavaScript

Question

Thanks for looking!

BACKGROUND

I am writing some front-end code that consumes a JSON service which is returning malformed JSON. Specifically, the keys are n

Answer 1

something like this may help to repair the json ..

$str='{foo:"bar"}';
echo preg_replace('/({)([a-zA-Z0-9]+)(:)/','$1"$2"${3}',$str);

Output:

{"foo":"bar"}

EDIT:

var str='{foo:"bar"}';
str.replace(/({)([a-zA-Z0-9]+)(:)/,'$1"$2"$3')
