When using a form in a dialog/frame with the method "json", all semi-colons are replaced with ;. This is fine if you only intend to display the form input, but presents problems if you actually want to use the semi-colon as a semi-colon. I imagine this replacement is in place from when form fields were only sent to the action macro as a string property list, and still applies to people that use forms that way.
It would be great if this replacement did not occur when the method is set to "json".
Work-around:
Run replace( Field, ";", ";" ) on all fields prior to using.
