"But using the DOMPrint code on a document as that gives me "˚"..."
Its escaping the & sign. In some cases that might be what you want, if you
want to keep the character in the å form after you parse the resulting
XML. If you want the å to be parsed to the actual code point, then it
shouldn't be doing this. Its kind of a tricky situation, where the output
formatter would have to be very smart about how it escapes character (which
it feels it should because they would be illegal in that context if not used
in a character reference.) You could have, in the same chunk of characters
being transcoded, some & charaters that do need to be escaped and some that
are part of character references. It would have to examine the text
(basically pseudo reparsed it) to determine which amps are part of character
references.
And then again, perhaps I've made way too much out of this and its already
dealt with in some way.
