[xml] Res: Help with encoding

Sorry if i dindn't explaim me very well.

i know that the parser don't wrong, sorry.

i already read this page, but, unfortnatly i didin't understand about encoding iso-8859-1, becouse this is the encoding that i'm using, and i set all the variables of my OS to this encoding iso-8859-1, and a thought that i would get took back the original character that was sent in the xml.

i need to know if it is possible.

Thanks Again!

and i'm sorry if i didn't understand very well.

  You need to read to understand the fundamental concepts of characters,
code points and encodings, there are pointers and explanations of libxml2
own behaviour at:
   http://xmlsoft.org/encoding.html

Sorry there is no alternative than to learn and understand those concepts.
Libxml2 APIs use UTF-8, what you seems to consider wrong is actually
perfectly correct.
