Hi All, I have a bunch of text files in UTF-8 encoding which have a 'byte-order mark' in them.
XXE refuses to open them: "line 1, column 0, character not allowed". I don't have this problem with Apache Cocoon Servlet opening and parsing them, so I did not expect this problem. It is handy having BOMs in the documents, because it helps certain Applications (MacOSX) to detect that UTF-8 is being used automatically. Is there a workaround? Thanks for any suggestions. regards Jeremy
