in reply to emdash problems with XML::Simple

I tried your files with the following results:

Saving the files "as is", I got an error "not well-formed (invalid token) at line 4, column 20, byte 153 at /usr/share/perl5/XML/Simple.pm line 362"

Saving the XML file as an UTF-8 file (with BOM), I get an error because the last line should be "</table>" not "</ettx>"

Correcting this I get no error, and the output "$VAR1 = undef;"

Rule One: "Do not act incautiously when confronting a little bald wrinkly smiling man."

    I messed up the xml in the post. This still gives me the same error:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
    <level type="b">
      <map abrv="JS—M"/>
      <map abrv="JS—K"/>
    </level>

    [download]

    I saved it in a file as UTF-8 with signature.
