Question

IE doesn’t like the å character in an XML file to display.
Is that an IE problem or are å and alike chars indeed invalid XML and do i have to create the &#xxx; values for all these letters?

Michel

by the way: the chars are inside a CDATA tag

The declaration is this:
hmm, can’t seem to get the xml declaration pasted in my post, it gets deleted or hidden in the html of my post i think, tried the backtick, 4 spaces etc to mark it as code. However, it’s the same as sais in the answers

The declaration is this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

The snippet is

<resource key="erroraspx-errorDescription" value="cdata">  
<![CDATA[Något gick fel. Klicka <a href=".">här</a> för att gå till webbsidan ]]>  
</resource>

I am pretty sure that this is an encoding problem. You need to check that the encoding of your file is indeed something internationalised, like UTF-8, and that the xml header indicates this.

The xml file should start with
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
