XML Help

I just finished the Waterloo Map XML, and got out all the bugs except for one. This one:

line 162: <name>Chässe</name> - Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding ! Bytes: 0xE4 0x73 0x73 0x65

I have no idea what it means, so could someone please tell me how to fix it? Thanks.

the XML probably doesn't understand the ä

try replacing it with
&#x00E4;

so Chässe becomes Ch&#x00E4;sse

I might have this wrong.

[lanyards]

OK, thanks. I'll try that.

Nope, it still says the same thing. Thanks anyways.

change the XML from

Chässe

to chasse

The XML wont understand the sybols in the letter.

You can still present it as Chässe on te map though.

the XML just hates you lol and wants to make your life miserable

actually, I just tried it using one of my map xml files and it worked.

First I got:
line 98: <name>ChŠsse</name> - Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding ! Bytes: 0x8A 0x73 0x73 0x65

Then I made the change as above and it came out fine. The line should look like this:
<name>Ch&#x00E4;sse</name>

Nice job Oaktown...

You should be able to google UTF 8 encoding - and your a and no doubt you will find examples of encoding (That no doubt look similar to Oakys)

Nevermind, you were right. It works now. Thanks guys.
