Re^2: XML File Encoding and Parsing Problem

Thanks however I should have explained that I am working with an XML file
written by someone else.
Therefore I do not have any control over the encoding that they want to use.

Again, when they are outputting the octet in hex notation `b0` under the encoding UTF-8 then this is illegal. `b0` functions in ISO-8859-1 and ISO-8859-15 as degree sign, but not in UTF-8. In UTF-8 this is `c2b0`. You can tell them if they are too stupid to do it correctly, they can use entities instead: `°` works regardless of encoding.	[reply]
