Hi,

The first impression of the product is good, but a small help text would be useful...

I´m trying to read a XML file generated by phpMyAdmin XML Dump version 2.11.2.1 but I get the error "an invalid character was found in text content" and cannot view the file.

The first line of my XML file is <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> and I have no problem opening the file with Internet Explorer.

XML Viewer gives no clue about the line where the error occured or the rejected character.

After some tries I found the character  (shows as a square) at a line. After deleting the character, XML Viewer read the file with no problems.

Questions:

1) What range of ASCII characters are accepted?
2) Is there an easier way to find the character or line number that generated the error?

Hi Meppy,

Thanks for your fast answer.
Yes, I tried <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> but got the message:
"Switch from current encoding to specified encoding not supported".
Any other tip?

Hi Meppy,

I´ve sent 2 files:

[b]vera_error.xml [/b]- 5 records marked as Test 1 to 5 (column DESCRICAO), records 1 and 5 are OK, records 2, 3 and 4 with error

[b]vera_ok.xml[/b] - same records, error characters changed to | and at column DESCRICAO I've changed ERROR with ERROR FIXED

Is it difficult to add an option like "generate a log file"? It could create a xml_file_name.log with some simple statistics like: number of lines at XML file, line number where the first error occured, number of records with no errors (if no error is detected).

Again, thanks for your fast answer.

Meppy,

It now works perfectly!

Thanks a lot!
