My apologies.

Tim: Using what you posted;
Is the third char of the first line read from file a TAB?

Just curious.  len(HEADER) is 63, error at 66  char number 0, doesn't 
seem quite consistent math wise.
63 + cr + lf gives 65.  But, as another noted, you don't have those.
"...66:\tillegal..."  is '\t' a tab on screen or byte 1 or 3 of file?
If you have mc available, in it - highlight file and press Shift-F3 then 
F4.  09 is TAB

</title> is closing, should not exist as opener
<html>   can be opener, did the h somehow become a '\'
          (still - that would put x'09' at byte 2 of file)

Most validate programs I have used will let me know the header is 
missing if in fact it is and give me a choice of how to process (XML, 
XHTML, HTML 1.1, ...) or quit.

is HEADER ('<!DOC...>') itself already in utf-8?
Or are you mixing things?

Last but not least - if you have source of validate process, check that 
over carefully.  The numbers don't work for me.

Just thinking on paper. No need to respond.
