XOM API for Processing XML with Java

["Michael Kay" <mike AT saxonica.com>]

What's the encoding in the HTTP header? The only reason I can think of that
the parser might be trying to read it as UTF-8 is that the HTTP header and
the XML declaration disagree.

You can always switch products, but if you do that every time you get an
error message you can't pin down, you soon run out of products.
