iso-8859-1 does not support "TM" trade mark symbol. It appears that maybe the tool you are using is converting on the console display the binary equivalent. When you parse in the encoding, it will convert it to what your standard encoding is, thus a potential different map (i.e. a square or question mark looking character).
I tried doing the (R) and (C) with no problems. They are valid iso-8859-1 characters.
You may want to try putting int the outgoing XML the unicode for CP1252 (Windows character set) "™" to see if the display comes up the way you want. But your mileage may vary based on the native display text encoding.
Not sure what to say other than verify the Unicode values and try adding it to the setText like.
String registered = "\u00AE";
element.setText("My Mark"+registered);This will be converted to the correct "&#xxx;" number so it can travel over XML.
Best Wishes!

The application is Jakarta Struts based. When the form is submitted the values are stored in Bean e.g. theItem and stored in the DOM tree:
Element elem = getElementByIdAttribute (theItem.getId()); log.trace(theItem.getHeadline()); elem.element("headline").setText(theItem.getHeadline());
When everything is stored I write into a file with the following code:
OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat( "", false, "iso-8859-1"); FileWriter out = new FileWriter(file); XMLWriter writer = new XMLWriter( out, format ); writer.write( doc ); out.close();
Thanks,

Martin,
When you say submit, what do you do? Can you provide snippets of the code? How do you "write" out the DOM tree? Are you using an org.dom4j.io.OutputFormat instance combined with the XmlWriter?
More info please. ;-)
Thanks, Dave

hi,
this is probably a very basic question, but I still haven't found a solution for it by browsing through the list archive.
I have written a web application that generates some xml files with iso-8859-1 encoding. in an dtd file I defined a entity e.g. <!ENTITY trademark "™">.
My XML file contains <headline>Test &trademark;</headline>
When I parse the document for reading everything works fine. The trademark symbol is properly displayed in the form field of my browser form.
But when I submit my form, the trademark symbol is replaced by an question mark: <headline>Test ?</headline>
If I write 'Test &trademark;' into the form field the following is written into the xml file: <headline>Test &trademark;</headline>
How do I get the entity into the xml file with dom4j?
best regards, martin
