Hello Lorin,

your document (as attached) has a bogus (non-utf-8) character after encoding="utf-8"?>

The validator is right to complain about it.

The fact that the error does not appear in direct input is only thanks to the fact that the garbage character 
is not kept through copy-pasting  (thanks to your OS, clipboad and/or browser).

How to fix: just remove the first few lines until the end of the doctype, and copy-paste from a correct 
source.
