[xml] RE: Hello!. About encoding

[a b <acptsys yahoo es>]

Hello again,

Sorry, I´ve just reached it, this is the code:

char *convert(unsigned char *in){
  unsigned char *out;
  int size, out_size, temp;
  xmlCharEncodingHandlerPtr handler;

  size=(int)strlen(in)+1;
  out_size=size*2-1;
  out=malloc((size_t)out_size);
  temp=size-1;

  UTF8Toisolat1(out, &out_size, in, &temp);
  return(out);
}

So I just need to call this function whenever I need
ISO-8859-1 formatted data from within the markup file.

Isn´t it that amazing?

Thanks very much, 

Kind Regards,
