It appears as if extra bogus characters are inserted in the header.

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. 393 2005-09-27 21:34:50 +0000 2005-09-27 21:34:50 +0000 this document fails validation, only when uploaded newwindow.html text/html 533 lrivers PD94bWwgdmVyc2lvbj0iMS4wIiBlbmNvZGluZz0idXRmLTgiPz7igKg8IURPQ1RZUEUgaHRtbCBQ VUJMSUMgIi0vL1czQy8vRFREIFhIVE1MIDEuMCBTdHJpY3QvL0VOIuKAqCAgICAiaHR0cDovL3d3 dy53My5vcmcvVFIveGh0bWwxL0RURC94aHRtbDEtc3RyaWN0LmR0ZCI+4oCoPGh0bWwgeG1sbnM9 Imh0dHA6Ly93d3cudzMub3JnLzE5OTkveGh0bWwiIHhtbDpsYW5nPSJlbiIgbGFuZz0iZW4iPuKA qDxoZWFkPuKAqCAgICA8bWV0YSBodHRwLWVxdWl2PSJjb250ZW50LXR5cGUiIGNvbnRlbnQ9InRl eHQvaHRtbDsgY2hhcnNldD11dGYtOCIgLz7igKggICAgPHRpdGxlPlVudGl0bGVkPC90aXRsZT7i gKg8L2hlYWQ+4oCoPGJvZHk+4oCoICAgIDxwPkhlcmUgaXMgc29tZSB0ZXh0PC9wPuKAqCAgICA8 cD48YSBvbmNsaWNrPSJ3aW5kb3cub3Blbih0aGlzLmhyZWYsJ19ibGFuaycpO3JldHVybiBmYWxz ZTsiIGhyZWY9Imh0dHA6Ly9tb3Nhc2F1ci5jb20iPlNvbWUgT3RoZXIgU2l0ZTwvYT48L3A+4oCo PC9ib2R5PuKAqDwvaHRtbD7igKg=
