so, the problem isn't the ampersand but rather the &egrave; in the following: <item_name>farm lettuces with reed avocado, cr&egrave;me fra&icirc;che, radish and cilantro</item_name> 


I'm not sure how php / DOM handles these non-standard other entities.  
How would / could I escape this? do I need to convert it to something  
else to make DOM happy (say grave) and then convert it back when  
outputted? It seems like there might be a way to use  
createEntityReference but searching through google shows no examples.  
arg.....



I have to do this to create XML documents for our company, and built 
this function for it.  You're welcome to use/modify it to fit your needs.
