[ssax-sxml] Error loading ultra-edit XML files and line numbers

[Victor M. P. <vmo...@gm...>]

Hi,

When I try to load an xml file edited with ultra-edit using 
sxml:document, I get the following error:

Error at position 0
(XML [22], char '  ' unexpected)
uncaught exception: -1

The problem seems to be related to three characters that ultra-edit 
includes at the beginning of the file. However, other parsers (xerces 
for instance) work fine.
The file looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<book>
</book>


The three characters can only be seen using some editors (emacs, for 
instance)



Another question is, once parsed a file using sxml:document, is it 
possible to obtain the line number at the XML file that corresponds to a 
(sxml) node ?


Thanks a lot
