This XML file is encoded in little endian UTF-16, with the byte marker even! I have never once, ever, seen a file like this. The wide character unicode encodings are widely seen as a mistake, honestly. The whole world is moving to UTF-8 very rapidly. I *think* our parser (which is an expat derivative) would actually support this, but unfortunately the file is invalid -- XML files that are not encoded in US-ASCII are required to specify their encoding in the <?xml?> tag at the top of the file, and this one doesn't. So the parser just sees garbage. What on earth generated this thing? Obviously you didn't type it. :) Andy _______________________________________________ Flightgear-flightmodel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-flightmodel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
