thanks, didn't know it was a bad practice.
Easy to use, and makes working with complex JSON a snap.
The source is also available:
I use this almost daily, lets you easily format/compact and edit JSON through a GUI: http://jsoneditoronline.org/ Easy to use, and makes working with complex JSON a snap. The source is also available: https://github.com/josdejong/jsoneditor/

bookmarked anyway for personal use :)

Great work! Would be nice to add an option to convert json key names to human-friendly names(passed as a separate key value array). So a key like full_name can appear as "Your Name:" to the end user.

also one to customize the display of booleans (sometimes on/off, yes/no are better than true/false)

the lib from this article is more tailored for apps that want to display arbitrary json to a broad range of users. As someone asked, there are not many uses, but I have one in my web app (http://event-fabric.com/)
