title: Trying to parse JSON string, unexpected number
body: <p>I am trying to parse this JSON:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var json = '{"material":"Gummislang 3\/4\" 30 m (utanp\u00e5liggande sk\u00e5p)"}'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I run <code>JSON.parse(json)</code> but i get the error <code>SyntaxError: Unexpected number</code> when doing so. I have tried this in Google Chrome. I don't know what the problem is since I can take the JSON string and put it in any JSON validator and it claims that the JSON is valid. Shouldn't the browser be able to parse it?</p>
