Firefox chokes on it (see <bestPassage> element, in particular). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. try to render http://search1.nsdl.org:8888/search/rest?verb=Search&s=242&n=1&q=category:collection Actual Results: XML parsing error Expected Results: cleanly rendered the URL

Summary: xml parsing error when asked to render legit XML → xml parsing error when asked to render legit XML
Version: unspecified → Trunk
The XML doesn't look fine to me; there are null characters in the <bestPassage> element. They aren't legal characters in XML.
testing with a few other tools confirms that the file is not well-formed xml. Resolving bug as invalid.
