All,

A failed JSON serialization can be obtained in many situations because 
JSON support is based on an implicit schema: a document element named 
"json",  attributes with a limited list of possible values.

For example, trying to generate a JSON object, authors might misspell an 
attribute value or forget to insert one of them. Serialization becomes 
impossible. Instead of an error being raised, an empty string might be 
returned (for the parse() function, an empty sequence is returned if 
parsing fails).

Example #1 ("bool" instead of "boolean"):
    <json object="true"><selected type="bool">true</selected></json>

Example #2 ("OK" instead of "true"):
<json object="true"><selected type="boolean">OK</selected></json>

Example #3 ("array" instead of "object"):
<json array="true"><selected type="boolean">true</selected></json>
