Rafael, Thanks for your assistance. I don't believe that I've adjusted the encoding of any of my app's xml documents including the .glade file from utf-8. The files were zipped up from windows onto a usb disc and then copied directly over to my FC5 box.
Do you know of a good way to detect document endoding? If I could tell how it was encoded, I could then adjust the processing directive(s) if necessary. Do you agree?
