Anybody knows that converting Json string data into UFT8 format.  
Ex: `trace(event.currentTarget.data.split("\"")[17]);`  
OutPut: \U00C7AN  
But the output should be ÇAN.

I am using Adobe Flash AS3.  
Thanks…

Can you paste the JSON string you are converting?

Does the `unescape` function work?

Hi kirupa. I am using Adobe Flash AS3. The JSON string is:  
{  
“name”: “Erkan \u00c7amyar”,  
“email”: “ekoneo\[u0040gmail.com](http://u0040gmail.com)”,  
“picture”: {  
“data”: {  
“is\_silhouette”: false,  
“url”: “[https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/v](https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/v)”  
}  
},  
“id”: “12345678910111213”  
}
