RE: Problem with Chinese

MSXML3 handles all encodings supported by your system, so perhaps it's a
problem with your document or code (encodings can be very tricky).
Please give an example of your XML document, your ASP code, and your
JavaScript code.

Subject:  Problem with Chinese


I have an XML document containing Chinese characters.
When I transform this using an XSL stylesheet under MSXML3.0 the
parser cannot find any of the data to display in the result set.

I have tried this document with the default XSL which is running on
IE5.5 and the data displays correctly, even the Chinese !  (as long as
I specify an encoding of GB2312 on the XML document.

If I use a MSXML3.0 transform on the server (using ASP) or on the
client (using Javascript), the data does not show up. 

I have tested this by making a normal english XML file and inserting
one chinese character.  Then you can't even see the English nodes.
Changing the encoding makes no difference.

What's going on here ??

I tried downloading and installing the Chinese Localized version of 
MSXML3.0 and it makes no difference.  Should it ??  How do I make
sure I'm using the Chinese version ?  Do I create a different activeX 
object like  MSXML2.Chinese ?    Do I have to install ONLY in 
replace mode ??

Help !!!  

Thanks,

Shaun Bliss
