Error description

• In the case of a view where the character "!" is located in
  its row/column text, when querying it over the web using the
  "?ReadViewEntries&OutputFormat=JSON" syntax, the response
  returned is invalid per the JSON standard ( http://json.org/ ).
  The character "!" appears as "\!" in the JSON response but
  should be "!".

  1.  Download file attached to database.
  2.  Expand its contents to the Domino "Data" directory.
  3.  Open the form "Test" over the web.
