Object (JSON) removed from the view 18 Aug 2013 22:53 #10812

First, thanks tp Tomaselli for this tip on how to get the JSON data type to "work"!

One thing I've noted in testing is that I had extra slashes being added for special characters that the user typed into the fields I was storing into the JSON field, e.g. ', ", etc.

Adding the following code to the fork for my item model took care of things:
protected function prepareTable($table)
	{
		$table->customoptions = stripslashes($table->customoptions);
		parent::prepareTable($table);
	}

Without digging into this in any detail, my assumption is that the data is being prepared for an SQL update/insert statement and slashes are added for that before the JSON encode, which then means that more slashes are being added to the data (and removing them here before the jsonencode call fixes things.)

If I'm missing something I'd love to hear from the experts here :)

Thanks!
Dave

This is now working for me

I think this was because the JSON was encoded twice time when model loads for pagination count, and then for listing
Coding is now a piece of cake

Although I found this tool some time ago I just started learning experimenting and building this first component on Monday and now on Thursday afternoon it's already online. Although I already had a working version done with another tool this is much easier to build and at the end you have the freedom to own your own component. Once you know how to use Cook you will boost your productivity as the learning curve is really moderate compared to many other tools.
