Jifty::JSON -- Wrapper around JSON
Provides a wrapper around the JSON library.
The JSON specification at http://www.json.org/ states that only double-quotes are possible for specifying strings. However, for the purposes of embedding Javascript-compatible objects in XHTML attributes (which use double-quotes), we sometimes want to provide strings in single quotes. This provides a version of "objToJson" in JSON which allows single-quoted string output.
If the faster JSON::Syck is available, it is preferred over the pure-perl JSON, as it provides native support for single-quoted strings.
For completeness, Jifty::JSON provides a jsonToObj. It is identical to "jsonToObj" in JSON.

jsonToObj
This method is identical to "objToJson" in JSON, except it has an additional possible option. The singlequote option, if set to a true value in the ARGUMENTS hashref, overrides JSON::Converter's string output method to output single quotes as delimters instead of double quotes.
