When I tell the editor to save UTF-8, it inserts some weird "BOM" character at the start of the file - and thus, any attempt at programatically processing that file instantly fails. :-(
Which means that your processor doesn't properly understand UTF-8. A BOM character isn't required for UTF-8 (it really only makes sense with UTF-16), but a UTF-8-aware processor should skip right over it if it's there. Steve Schafer Fenestra Technologies Corp. http://www.fenestra.com/
