I had this issue last week too.
In my case was not IE issue, but general.
It was about parsing characters to XML.
I recommend you to use CDATA to avoid characters issue.
This is a portion of my php code:
function parseToXML($htmlStr)
{
$xmlStr=str_replace('<','<',$htmlStr);
$xmlStr=str_replace('>','>',$xmlStr);
$xmlStr=str_replace('"','"',$xmlStr);
$xmlStr=str_replace("'",''',$xmlStr);
$xmlStr=str_replace("&",'&',$xmlStr);
$xmlStr=str_replace(chr(38),'&',$xmlStr);
$xmlStr=str_replace("/n",'',$xmlStr);
return $xmlStr;
}
function parseD($htmlStr)
{
$xmlStr=str_replace('/\'/','’', $htmlStr);
$xmlStr=preg_replace('/[^(\x20-\x7F)]*/','',$xmlStr);
return $xmlStr;
}
echo '<lat>'.parseToXML($row['latitude']).'</lat>';
echo '<lng>'.parseToXML($row['longitude']).'</lng>';
echo '<info><![CDATA['.parseD($row['remarks1']).']]></info>';
You can read more about the CDATA section at
