Hello,

  I don't have a whole lot of experience with JSON.  I am trying to return a
two-dimensional array from PHP to Javascript.  The array contains some
strings, however, which seem to screw up the JSON parsing.  The strings
contain parenthesis which I guess JSON uses.

But shouldn't the JSON_encode call take care of that?  I'm confusing.

So I have an array.  Here are two entries, where each entry has three
sub-strings.

"(Jan 7, 2015 0:42AM)","2015-01-06 15:43:00","this is string 1."
"(Jan 7, 2015 0:42AM)","2015-01-06 15:42:26","this is string 2"

I json_encode that from PHP. But when I use JSON.Parse back in Javascript, I
get an error: SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Unexpected token '('

Anyone know what I need to do to fix it?  Do I need to further encode those
strings with parenthesis before sticking them in the array for JSON to
encode?  

Thanks!
