Aha! I noticed that 150 was missing from the ISO encoding table and the source xml is indeed using windows-1252 encoding. That explains why this appears to be the only character in the xml source that doesn't seem to get translated by Universal Feed Parser. But I'm now wondering if the feed parser is using windows-1252 rather than some other encoding. The below page provides details on how UFP handles character encodings. http://www.feedparser.org/docs/character-encoding.html I'm wondering if there's a way to figure out which encoding UFP uses when it parses the file. I didn't have the Universal Encoding Detector (http://chardet.feedparser.org/) installed when I parsed the xml file. It's not clear to me whether UFP requires that library to detect the encoding or if it's an optional part of it's broader routine for determining encoding. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
