Hi all,

I am using a java program to send an XML over http to a server.
Everything seems to work fine, the only problem occurs when the square symbol is inserted in the XML

Some thing like 'M�' gives me an error:

Is there some special translation that i must do?

Kindest regards,

Wout

isn't there a way to set the encoding for the XML Send so that the parser knows it must expect such a character?

Kindest regards,

Not sure about that, but your parser will expect you to have correctly encoded XML for parsing, representing xml values in UTF-8 format is one way to avoid this error.
