Hi all :)

I'm trying to get an item logger working for a game I play. It consists of a XSL stylesheet a XML file which doesn't change and a XML file which prints all the items i find. My problem is that when I try to open the log where all the items are printed with internet explorer it says that it cannot change to the encoding because "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>" is not supported. I can't open it in a XML editor either without getting errors. Anyone know what's going on? :confused:

You should simply use the UTF-8 encoding. Maybe you try to open an XML file latin-1 encoded within an UTF-8 encoded web document.

Maybe another solution:

If you change the extension to .xls it should work in IE. i just tried it and the xml file just prints the code, but the xls shows you the data - that's if you've formatted it right.
