👉 Clean JSON Inputs & Validate

I keep receiving JSON data with odd characters so I made a small app that corrects all those issues and does an JSON.parse check to see if it passes. Parsing errors will display if any.

<h3>Clean JSON</h3>

<h5>Input</h5>
<textarea id=i></textarea>

<h5>Output</h5>
<textarea id=o></textarea>

<p id=err></p>

<script>
i.onchange = _ => {
  o.value = v = i.value
    .replace(/[\u000B\u001C\u001D]/g, "") //weird space characters like tab
    .replace(/\u0019/g,"'") //odd single quote character 
    .replace(/\u0013/g, "-") //odd dash character
  ;
  try {
    JSON.parse(v);
    err.innerHTML = "Valid";
  }
  catch (e) {
    err.innerHTML = e;
  }
};
</script>
