Fawzi,

What I've done is actually going pretty well, I can parse all the examples from www.json.org (albeit with changes that I don't want to make - they have an example (the most complicated one) with variable names that would not compile in Javascript). My test program parses them, converts them to XML, then converts them back back to JSON, and compares the outputs.

D/Phobos really does make this stuff easy - I love it!
