beautify-json

jquery plugin to make JSON more human-readable

A simple, light-weight jquery plugin that makes your JSON messages easier to read.

I have done quite a thorough test on it and it works perfectly so far, if you come across a JSON format that it does not "beautify" properly, please post it on the issues page.
