Hi,
This is just a thought, but could you export the file as a CSV and use
some kind of scripting language to generate an XML file - I may be way
off, but you could set language options for PHP which might mean you are
reading in the same charset as you are writing???
I don't have any experience of dealing with language stuff in PHP, but
it was an idea...

OK... I think I've reached the end of the internet as well as the end

I've been trying to figure out a way to take translations that I've
received in an Excel spreadsheet and paste them into an XML document.
The XML is UTF-8 and it's plain text (of course). No matter what
editor (Flex Builder 3, Dreamweaver, Text Edit, WordPad, NotePad,
Word, etc.) or OS (OSX 10.4, Windows XP) or combination of the two, it
seems that when I try to combine the eastern translation with western
markup (XML tags, or even western characters for that matter), as soon
as I drop in a single character, if flips the orientation of the
translated Arabic text?!?
Everything that I find on the internet leads me hopeful down a path of
ultimate disappointment. I know that I'm not the only one with this
problem and I'm sure one of you has experienced this. Please let me in
on you secrets. I beg you...
Let me just clarify—My problem is not font related (I've got that all
sorted out), and for the most part it's not really Flash related
(except for the fact that I'm using this XML content for dynamic text
fields). this list is probably not the proper place for this question,
but I'm out of options and I thinking that I'm going to have to scrap
some of the digging I've done in relation to getting text to display
properly and make alterations to my application to load images instead
of live type.
Somebody... Anybody.... Help a brotha out!
