I have a string of HTML that I'm copy pasting into a String object that looks something like the following:
val s = """<body>
<p>This is a test</p> <p>This is a test 2</p>
</body"""
The problem here is, when I display this string as JSON within the context of a web browser, the output displays literal \n
and \t
characters to the tune of something like this:
"<body>\n <p>This is a test</p>\t <p>This is a test 2</p>\n</body>"
Is it possible to perhaps strip all of these escaped sequences from my strings output in Scala?
