Unexpected Character Exception

[Oliver Mendoza]

Hello.

I'm having a problem trying to get a feed. I'm using a servlet to request the 
feed and then output the xml to the response object.

The exception I'm getting is this:

com.ctc.wstx.exc.WstxUnexpectedCharException: Unexpected character ' ' (code 
32) in content after '<' (malformed start element?).
 at [row,col {unknown-source}]: [27,16]

and this is the code:
    
PrintWriter result = response.getWriter();
ClientResponse resp = client.get( url ); 
if (resp.getType() == ResponseType.SUCCESS) {
    Document<Feed> doc = resp.getDocument();
    response.setContentType("text/xml");
    doc.writeTo(result);
}

But I can get the xml with Firefox and It doesn't contain any < character with 
a space after it.

Any idea what to verify?

Thanks
