[x3d-public] Error in BoxManC.json (attached)

[John Carlson]

I suggest downloading my https://GitHub.com/coderextreme/x3dvalidator
package, it’s not perfect (finds too many errors) but it seems that it’s
pretty reliable about there being some kind of problem, even if the
description is a bit poor.

The alternative seems to be programming tests in X3DJSAIL or similar?  JSON
input would be required.
