Locating a UTF-8 sequence error?
I'm receiving an "Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence" error; can anyone tell me how to locate the offending character(s)?
Thanks,
Greg

If you have xmllint installed, just type:
xmllint <FILENAME>
It will give you the exact location of the offending character. I have
used this method myself to clean a UTF-8 file with some invalid byte
sequenses - works excellent as long as the number of invalid chars is
small.
