RE: SAXON Fatal Error UTF-8 sequence (character code:

This shows that you're stating the file to be UTF-8,
while internally the encoding is different than UTF-8.

If you correctly state the encoding, all will be well.

Michael,
I did have the encoding specified in both the xml and the xsl
documents (below). You book helped me to realize the value of doing
this despite the utf-8 default.

As a result, I knew it must be a character problem but I didn't know
where to look in the document because the column and line numbers
were so wacky. Is there a way to decipher this error location when it
happens so I won't have to do the same thing again?

I read somewhere that this is a binary location. Does that mean I
could translate it (from however saxon is giving the location) and
find out where it is in my document? (Hey, I am really trying to
figure out how saxon comes up with this location.)

Thanks,
Mike F.
