i have a grid, the user can enter any character including (shash) and “(quote). the values will submit to the server without a problem. however when the response from the server refreshing the grid occurs, the characters (slash) and “quote renders the json string/object invalid and the grid stays empty. if i escape the character on the server side the json reponse is valid and the grid is populated. however the values in the cells display as escaped.

the question is: how do i unescape values from the json response before they are populated into each row/cell?

thanks,
