Re: generating xml with chars like (õäöü)

Hi if you are inserting text with for example createTextNode(), then the input has to be UTF-8. Always. You have to transform that in PHP before you insert the code (loading xml documents from files or strings with $dom->load() and $dom->loadXML() does not have this limitation, there it's the encoding attribute, which counts) This is for both PHP 4 and PHP 5. Furthermore, this is a list for developing the xml support in PHP, not for developing _with_ XML in PHP... php-general is maybe the more appropriate place for such questions. chregu On 13.7.2004 14:24 Uhr, jux wrote:

Hi I found another problem in that kind of situation. Now when i create xml data with DOM, I have character ecoding problem. Right now my xml starts like so: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> But i must use estonian language characters like: õ ä ö ü So i think UTF-8 charset should do fine here but xml DOM had some kind of problems when encoding was utf-8. So what do u suggest me to do. Use some kind of encoding or maybe use somekind of character converting functions in PHP to read/write xml files? PS. and still my xml data comes in one line:(
