Error not displayed when only "" is entered #414

No error alert is displayed when only "" is entered in the editor. Surely this is not valid json, or?

Similar this [""] also doesnt give an error.

An empty string "" is indeed valid JSON.

Maybe you're confusing an empty string vs a string containing an empty string?

JSON.parse('')   // Error
JSON.parse('""') // Returns the parsed, empty string ''
