Hi there
I'm trying to view a XML file with danish characters ÆØÅæøå, but gets the error: An invalid character was found in text content. If i overwrite the danish characters with X or whatever, it works fine.
Thank you in advance.

If you try to open the XML file in Internet Explorer, does it work fine?

Just tried, and no - actually not possible to open in Internet Explorer too.
I tried Word as well and fail too. Word tells me a line an column no., and that is exactly where the first danish character "æ" is shown.
I was under the impression that various national characters were legal in XML files?  ???

Try to save the file in UTF-8 or Unicode (and also add the respective Encoding attribute to the xml tag within the file) and test again.

In addition, it appears that if you are creating the XML files with the viewer, setting the Encoding attribute will be enough to save the file in the appropriate encoding. I was able to create the following XML file within the XML viewer and it saves and loads just fine:

Code
Select All
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<doc>
      <element>ÆØÅæøå</element>
</doc>


Regards,
Meppy
