Yes, it's a known limitation of the SGML Parser we use that it's b0rken when presented with a UNICODE Byte Order Mark. That similar problems exist for other parts of UNICODE is not particularly surprising. :-( >http://www.petesguide.com/style/index.html >http://www.petesguide.com/style/misunderstood.html >http://www.petesguide.com/style/peeves.html Are these URIs more or less permanent? (see below) >Is anyone working on more complete support of Unicode for the validator? Yes and no. It's on the TODO list, but it's been pushed back a bit by other priorities. I'd like to use your pages as test cases, so I have some verification that it's /really/ been fixed when we try to fix it. Is there any chance those URIs will remain static?
