Subject: Re: Characters in XML file
That leading character must be a Byte-Order-Marking ( BOM ).
For example, windows' notepad puts a BOM on front of a file if you tell
it to save as UTF-8 or UTF-16.
XML parsers _should_ not treat that as an error .... but I remember
encountering the same problems you had with Xerces 1.4.4.
I have not tried though with Xerces 2.x.
