Hi Travis, Generally UTF-8 is the best choice as the encoding for xml, including Glade, files.
But beware of any post-processing that may be occurring, like translation extraction/substitution or resource embedding. They must be redone after changing the encoding of the glade files. Take care the while xml parsers normally can accept well many encodings (if correctly instructed in the processing directive), some of those post-processing tools may not understand that and may have to be manually instructed.

Hello, I've been writing to [email protected] about this without any conclusive info thus far. Please forgive me it this is a cross-post as I've written pretty much the same things there. I wrote a (hopefully) cross-platform scipted installer application using glade on my windows box. The app runs fine on that platform. It was build with the csc compiler using visual studio 2003 and then all the files were copied over to my FC5 box. I did the same with another non-gui app and had no problems. Here is the error message that I get: **************************************************** Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to set label from markup due to error parsing markup: Error on line 4 char 6: '0' is not a valid character following a '<' character; it may not begin an element name **************************************************** It sounds to me like I'm passing some bad markup to one of the glade labels. I've validated my .glade project file and also my app's xml config file which contains some of the labels' text. I thought that this might be an encoding problem where my xml file was saved with a funny encoding. I tried to resave the xml files. I also thought that somehow I'm getting bad characters passed to one of the glade labels. I'm doing some search & replace in the config file, replacing a few variables which can appear in the xml content. Does any of this ring a bell with anyone?
