It's been a while that i've looked at the corresponding code,
but i'm quite sure that "UTF8Toisolat1()" won't handle the buffer
size for you.
You can use "xmlCharEncOutFunc()" (get the encoding handler using
"xmlGetCharEncodingHandler()") to convert from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1,
it uses xmlBuffer for in/out parameters and handles the buffer size.

Ciao, Markus
