#4374 — Wrong escape sequence for tabulation code in JSON stringifier


In 24.3.2.2 Runtime Semantics: QuoteJSONString,

item 2.b: "0x000B (LINE TABULATION)" should be replaced by "0x0009 (CHARACTER TABULATION)"

item 2.b.ii 'LINE TABULATION "t"' should be replaced by 'CHARACTER TABULATION "t"'

This is according to ECMA-404 (http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ECMA-ST/ECMA-404.pdf), item 9: "\t represents the character tabulation character (U+0009). "


fixed in rev39 publication draft
