I am creating a string as follows:
string title = "Q:hello";
I then want to embed this string in a JSON string to send to the client. How do I escape the semicolon? I don’t want to use a library.

According to the spec, only characters that need escaping are “, \, and control-character:
so you don’t need to escape semicolon in a Json string. Ref: http://www.json.org/ (on the right side)
