RE: [dom4j-user] xml in BIG5 encoding - incorrect result

[David Thielen]

Hello;   As I understand it, 2 byte sequences in Big5 are the unicode value of the character. If this is not the case, then it may be converting them correctly and I just am not understanding Big5 correctly.   Thanks - dave   From: Maarten Coene [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 09, 2005 12:34 PM To: David Thielen Subject: Re: [dom4j-user] xml in BIG5 encoding - incorrect result   David,   could you send us some code showing how you are reading the XML file?   regards, Maarten David Thielen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi;   When I have an xml file in BIG5 encoding, I dont get back the correct character values for 2 byte literals.
