Re: Problems with special characters in XML

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

i would guess that your problem is to do with the HTTP encoding. Probably
your web service is sending a HTTP header specifying UTF-8 encoding (which
obviously doesn't match up with the XML document)

you might need to use a network monitor like ethereal to figure out what is
actually going over the wire

FWIW with my current application, we use utf-8 wherever possible (certainly
for all XML files and HTTP traffic) because it minimises these sort of
issues

The problem seems to be the webservice. In the context of the
webserver, the XML document is able to read out the encoding
correctly. But if a client gets the XML document through a web service
call, the XML document does not contain any correct special
characters. What must be done to solve my problem?
