I guess that you have checked "Generate XHTML rather than HTML" in Options|Customize Configuration|Document Conversion Preferences. > *1.?

This happens when displaying in both IE and FireFox > browsers. The generated XHTML file uses an UTF-8 encoding and the browser thinks it is a ISO-8859-1 or Windows-1252 encoding. If you use the view menu of your browser to specify UTF-8 rather than ISO-8859-1 or Windows-1252, the spurious ? characters will disappear. This is a problem of the XSLT style sheet which is used to generate XHTML (there is no problem with plain HTML). There is no easy workaround for this problem. Well, you can always try this. Please select "Options|Customize Configuration|Change Document Conversion Parameters". Then select "Convert to multi-page HTML" from the combobox, then add parameter "chunker.output.encoding" with value "ISO-8859-1". See attached screenshot. Note that this parameter applies to "Convert to multi-page HTML" and not to "Convert to single-page HTML". > > > I am running 32-bit Windows XP. > > > > Also, whenever I load XMLMind, the top menu options are not displayed > (just a black bar).

I would say that your PC, and not XMLmind XML Editor, has a problem. May be rebooting it would cure this problem (not kidding). -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
