"Posted as a URL parameter"? POST or GET? You want a POST here. > <xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > <records> > <record> That's XML as a string, as if intended for inclusion in XML. Markup is parsed as a string, hence the entity references. http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-predefined-ent > Before sending the XML is encoded using the java.net.URLEncoder object > and the UTF-8 character set, but using a java.net.URLDecoder on > receiving it does not get rid of the encoded characters. Nothing to do with URL encoding, which looks different. Nothing to do with the character encoding. (Note that all escaped characters are in the ASCII character set.) Some element in the chain gets the parsing wrong. I'd suspect the producer of this "XML" first.
