sounds like an encoding problem. check that theres no UTF-8 BOM marker in the file - you might need a good txt editor like notepad++ to do this.
check that the response content encoding from cfhttp and the cffile encoding are the same (should be utf-8) check the <?xml declaration that the encoding there matches the encoding you use in your CFFILE charset= attribute. opening in IE proves it works with the MSXML parser. You might be better off doing a dump of xmlPrase(cfhttp.fileContent) to get hopefully more detailed exception info. the other one is check for coldfusion debugging being turned off on the remote server :) stupid i know, but i must admit ive made that mistake! hth Pat On Aug 1, 4:44 pm, Haikal Saadh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > An invalid character was found in text content > > That to me is saying there's something there that IE thinks is incorrect. > > Taco Fleur wrote: > > I thought opening it up in Internet Explorer is enough proof its > > valid?
