I'm passing a List<Results> object to my view as the model. On that page I'm trying to convert it to Javascript to use client side.

var model = '@Html.Raw(Json.Encode(Model))';
var data = JSON.parse(model);
self.Results = ko.observableArray(data);

When I do I get this error jQuery.Deferred exception: JSON.parse: bad escaped character at line 1 column 240 of the JSON data

I know I need to escape the data but not sure at what point or how.

can you post value of [var model] and Results class structure – Z.R.T. Dec 20 '17 at 04:26
You might have any escape character in your data. Try to unescape it before parsing into json. – Sagar Dec 20 '17 at 05:27

@Z.R.T. I can see it's encoding single quotes but it's not handling double slashes \\ – user3953989 Dec 21 '17 at 03:33

@user3953989 i think, you need to escape double slashes when you build Model object, for example : @Html.Raw(Json.Encode(new { aa = @"\\"})) – Z.R.T. Dec 21 '17 at 04:29
