Error message on web site

Hello,

On my website I have this error: "Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional" when I click on it it gives me the following information:

Line 9, Column 0: character data is not allowed here.
/**✉
You have used character data somewhere it is not permitted to appear. Mistakes that can cause this error include:

putting text directly in the body of the document without wrapping it in a container element (such as a <p>aragraph</p>), or
forgetting to quote an attribute value (where characters such as "%" and "/" are common, but cannot appear without surrounding quotes), or
using XHTML-style self-closing tags (such as <meta ... />) in HTML 4.01 or earlier. To fix, remove the extra slash ('/') character. For more information about the reasons for this, see Empty elements in SGML, HTML, XML, and XHTML. y wesite I have this error
I know what the error is, but for the life of me I cannot find the file that it is comming from. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I should look. I hate seeing this error on all of my website pages.

Thanks for the help,

Re: Error message on web site

Be easier if you posted a link to your site ofr us to see it in context.

But for it to be that early in the code , i would suggest it is in index.php, html_header or tpl_main page

easist thing to do , is get your validation to show you the source code , then look at the lines around it for something recognizable. if its near the meta tags then its the html_header .. like that.
