Simulator error while adding Firefox OS app to simulator

I've just developed an app for Firefox OS.But when I opened the simulator and tried to add the app into it; it shows some error code like the following:

The webapp manifest isn't a valid JSON file: SyntaxError: JSON.parse: bad control character in string literal at line 2 column 24 of the JSON data at: file:///directory.../manifest.webapp

What is the problem?

When having problems with the format of your manifest file, throw it through JSONLint. When you paste your manifest in there it will highlight the following line:

        "url": "abcd.com";

With error message:

Parse error on line 12:
...   "url": "abcd.com";    },    "defaul
-----------------------^
Expecting '}', ':', ',', ']'

So there we have it. Need to be replaced by a ,.
