No! There is *no* disastrous side effect with the validator. The validator reports "non SGML character number ..." and this is a fine and useful error report. It even has a longish explanation: "You have used an illegal character in your text ..." But with a default of UTF-8, there is a disastrous effect. The validator sits there and does nothing: "Sorry! This document can not be checked." /* That should read "cannot". */Received on Friday, 25 April 2008 16:38:09 GMT
