I am posting data from registration form to server using Asynctask method in json format.

I am getting the Date of Birth from calendar in 04/13/2018 format. But after converting this in to json format it is showing like this : 04/\13/\2018.

I have tried replace("\\" "") and replaceAll("\\\\" ,"") functions for removing the backslash from the string but no luck. Here is my code.

            JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject();
            String fomattedDate = "04/13/2018";
            Log.e("DOB", formattedDate);
          //Here it is printing like normal format, i.e; 04/13/2018

            formattedDate = mSelctedDate.replace("\\", "");

            jsonObject.accumulate("DateOfBirth", formattedDate);

            String json = jsonObject.toString();

But here it is printing like

{"DateOfBirth":"04/\13/\2018"}

Please any one help me to sort out this issue.

Thanks in Advance.

have you tried replacing after converting the json object to string? – MaxG Apr 13 '18 at 17:16
