#33375 [Ver->Fbk]: xml_parse return invalid character error with ISO-8859-1 data

ID: 33375 Updated by: chregu@php.net Reported By: frederic dot lecointre at burnweb dot net -Status: Verified +Status: Feedback Bug Type: XML related Operating System: * PHP Version: 5CVS-2005-06-17 New Comment: You have to define the encoding of the XML document in the XML header (which is also the XML standard, if you don't do that, it defaults to UTF-8). The xml_parser_create() parameter is only for the output-encoding (since PHP 5). See the manual for details. Can you please try adding <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> to your XML document and see if it works?

ISO-8859-1 is ISO-8859-1 ! is there an active maintener for this extension ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-06-17 10:20:52] sniper@php.net This also causes the pear install fail in HEAD. And this is because we now use libxml2 instead of expat where former is more strict perhaps? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-06-17 02:27:09] frederic dot lecointre at burnweb dot net Description: ------------ xml_parse return invalid character error with ISO-8859-1 data.
