At the top of the header I have

<RECIPES xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="file:///c:/nobackup/Recipe.xsd">
<RECIPE RECIPEID="2" TITLE="Escargots Red Lion" TTIME="60" CONVENIENCE="Gourmet" IMAGE="2.jpg" COURSE="Appetizers">
<INGS>

Does that not declare it UTF-8 and when I validate should it not notify me that is that it is not UTF-8 if that is the case?

Hi Scott,
the declaration specifies the UTF-8 encoding; and if Stylus loads it without complaining, it means it's valid UTF-8. How are you generating it? Could you zip it and post it in the forum so that we can double check it?

Thanks,
Alberto

Hi Scott,
your XML files contains a few non-latin characters (like the accented "e", the "degree" and the "registered name" symbols) that are not in the range 0x00-0x7F. So, in UTF-8 they are encoded using multiple values; in your case, for instance, the "degree" symbols, whose Unicode codepoint is 0xB0, is stored as 0xC2 0xB0. This is correct UTF-8; so, something is wrong in your client configuration. Do you know which software he is using, and can you get the offset where the wrong codepoint is reported?

Thanks,
Alberto

To clarify Stylus is encoding correctly and everything according to stylus is correct. That is good.


My second question would be can we turn that option off and make it more strict?

How they are validating is using http://www.validome.org/xml/validate


Thanks for the help.

Hi Scott,
I tested the validator with a subset of the file (20Mb is too big for their web interface) and it pass the well-formedness test. The validation step clearly fails because it's missing a schema. Could it be that the error your client reports is related to a schema validation error, and not to a wrong UTF-8 codepoint?

No it had to do with the accent over the e and an accent over the a as will once I cleared them out the XML ran fine.


I think you are on the right track with the previous post.
