Fenomas is right, this has to do with how the COLLADA data was made. There is some very specific work arounds that can be used to help cleanup the XML which is all COLLADA/DAE is.

-I touched deeply on this all in the following.

Some people use things like Milk Shape 3D, or even Swift3D to export their XML. What I have found through my travels is that native COLLADA exporters from MAYA and MAX fail terribly. If your using 2008 version of either of the formerly named software, feelingsoftware.com makes a wonderful COLLADA(DAE) exporter that papervision loves!
