NAME
CGI::Session::Serialize::json - serializer for CGI::Session
DESCRIPTION
This library can be used by CGI::Session to serialize session data. Requires JSON::Syck. JSON is a type of YAML, with one extension: serialized JSON strings are actually valid JavaScript code that a browser can execute. Any langauge that has a YAML parser (Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, C, etc) can also read data that has been serialized with JSON.
