* Object pairs are represented via elements. The name of a pair is rewritten to an element name:
** Empty names are represented by a single underscore ({{Code|_}}). Existing underscores are rewritten to two underscores ({{Code|__}}), and characters that are not valid in element names are rewritten to an underscore and the character’s four-digit Unicode.
** If the {{Code|lax}} option is set to {{Code|falsetrue}}, invalid characters are simply replaced with underscores or (when invalid as first character of an element name) prefixed with an underscore. The resulting names are better readable, but cannot always be converted back to their original form.
* Array entries are also represented via elements. {{Code|_}} is used as element name.
* Object and array values are stored in text nodes.
