I have the following xml that I would like to read:

  1. chinese xml – https://news.google.com/news/popular?ned=cn&topic=po&output=rss
  2. korean xml – http://www.voanews.com/templates/Articles.rss?sectionPath=/korean/news

Currently, I try to use a luaxml to parse in the xml which contain the chinese character. However, when I print out using the console, the result is that the chinese character cannot be printed correctly and show as a garbage character.

I would like to ask if there is anyway to parse a chinese or korean character into lua table?

    I managed to convert the “中美” into chinese character.
    I would need to do one additional step which has to convert all the the series of string by using this method from this link, http://forum.luahub.com/index.php?topic=3617.msg8595#msg8595 before saving into xml format.

    string.gsub(l,"&#([0-9]+);", function(c) return string.char(tonumber(c)) end)

    I would like to ask for LuaXML, I have come across this method xml.registerCode(decoded,encoded)

    Under that method, it says that

    registers a custom code for the conversion between non-standard characters and XML character entities

    What do they mean by non-standard characters and how do I use it?
