Re: encoding problem

It looks like you should have a text declaration in the entity:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
      <entry time='991146682'>
        <name>Joe User</name>
        <email>juser@xxxxxxxxxx</email>
        ...
      </entry>

      <entry time='...'>
        ...
      </entry>
