Hi List

We are involved in a project to send order details via xml to a fulfilment company.

We had an international order rejected recently with a I^ character in one of the address lines. I have written some code to simulate the issue:

var('address1') = '1 Rue De L=CEle' ;

// encode_xml not affecting the string
encode_xml($address1) "<br />" ;

outputs:
1 Rue De L=CEle

// manually replacing does work
$address1 = string_replace( $address1, -find= "=CE", -replace="Î") ;
$address1 = string_replace( $address1, -find= "=EE", -replace="î") ;

$address1 ;
Outputs:
1 Rue De LÎle


Is this a bug in the encode_xml tag, are the fulfilment company being too fussy, or am I missing something?

The hard-coded solution is not great as I have just found a table of 30 such characters in the French language.

Merci

Jon Harris
