Re: [xml] xmlSaveToFilename with UTF-8 encoding

I haven't tried the example files yet but will do this.

The original XML file has a UTF-8 header and is properly encoded in UTF-8 (if you look at it with an hex 
viewer) with a UTF-8 BOM sequence.

The same goes for the XSL file; the "xsl:output encoding" is set to UTF-8.

But the resulting file is encoding in ANSI....

Originally, I used the xsltSaveResultToFileName() function, until I realized that the resulting file is not 
encoded as UTF-8. Then I searched you library and found the xmlSaveFileEnc() or xmlSaveToFilename() functions 
where the encoding can be passed as a parameter.
But none of these functions seem to work for me.

Maybe I should add that I'm working on Windows and use the Delphi/Pascal version of libxml2.

Any other tips on how to force the right encoding?

BTW: another question but related to this topic
Is there any way to force a "Save data to file" - function/procedure to add a UTF-8 BOM sequence to be added 
at the beginning of the file?

Thanks.

best wishes,
Michael
