Couple of ways to get round this:
1. Define the entity in a DTD for the XML
2. Put the raw character in the output (i.e. Ï)
3. Write the character as you have done, but put it inside a
block

I am using PHP to build an XML file, but I keep on getting an XML
error when open the file in Google Chrome.

This page contains the following errors:
error on line 30 at column 318: Entity 'iuml' not defined
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.
Okay, Thanks... appears the problem is that I have foreign language
entities in my HTML... Ugh
I am sure this is not really the most efficient way to do this, but I
tried using the following to get rid of these, but it appears that it
just converts them to this i¿½...
$search =
explode(",","ç,æ,œ,á,é,í,ó,ú,à,è,ì,ò,ù,ä,ë,ï,ö,ü,ÿ,â,ê,î,ô,û,å,e,i,ø,u");
$replace =
explode(",","c,ae,oe,a,e,i,o,u,a,e,i,o,u,a,e,i,o,u,y,a,e,i,o,u,a,e,i,o,u");
$decode_string = str_replace($search, $replace,
html_entity_decode($row_rsFeed['full_desc']))
I am going to read up some more on sanitizing HTML
Joe
you need to be dealing with encodings here; whats the encoding of the
original content? iso-8859-1? - in short what you need is to convert all
"text" to be utf-8, more than likely utf8_encode($whatchaNeed) will get
you going in right direction.

Okay, Thanks... appears the problem is that I have foreign language
entities in my HTML... Ugh
I am sure this is not really the most efficient way to do this, but I
tried using the following to get rid of these, but it appears that it
just converts them to this i¿½...
$search =
explode(",","ç,æ,œ,á,é,í,ó,ú,à,è,ì,ò,ù,ä,ë,ï,ö,ü,ÿ,â,ê,î,ô,û,å,e,i,ø,u");
$replace =
explode(",","c,ae,oe,a,e,i,o,u,a,e,i,o,u,a,e,i,o,u,y,a,e,i,o,u,a,e,i,o,u");
$decode_string = str_replace($search, $replace,
html_entity_decode($row_rsFeed['full_desc']))
I am going to read up some more on sanitizing HTML

Entity errors are almost always caused by a bare ampersand in a URL. You need to convert them to &. Since this error occurs, there may also be other errors in the encoding. You need to read up on URL and HTML sanitization. Bob McConnell -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

hi Joe,
the document encoding has nothing to do with the error.
maybe you have & just before the "iuml".
make it ï.
or maybe copy and paste that line here because i suspect there is
something else.
