    Default Flash cfform error - INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalidor illegal XML character is specified. null

    I have a simple cfform using Flash that keeps giving the following error:
    INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalid or illegal XML character is specified. null

    I can't see any problems and do not understand where the null it is referring
    to is. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    You can't have a space in the name of the select list
