Answer 1

I have found the answer, I asked the question on another forum and got this which has solved the issue. I thought I would post here for future reference:

If you copied from the formatted display in your web browser, rather than using "view source", you now have Unicode \0xA0 characters in your document. Use your text editor to search and remove them. Alternately, you can install a plugin that will highlight non-ASCII characters. (I think there is one called "Unicode Highlighter" - there may be others.)
