Hi, i am generating xml in java using XMLSerializer. the generaeted code is exactly as i want it but it is failing the build process as the xml content has important special characters e.g. "�" within. it says:
(By the way - be aware that Textpad does not support Unicode, so I'd use a better editor for XML. The one that comes with Eclipse for example) [ December 18, 2006: Message edited by: Paul Sturrock ]
Thanks Paul... Yes Internet Explorer I then tried using a ù in place of �...still no joy then i tried opening in wordpad. and get this: My incorrect file reads properly but i found another xml file that reads �� for � i used this (replaced ù with ��) and it works. whether its a complete solution remains to be seen! cheers for your help there...

IE is just using its own parser to display the XML file; I'm not sure I'd rely on it. I'd try using another, more dependable one. Assuming you created the file in an editor that supports Unicode there should be no problem using this character.
