encoding in an XML DOM

[wduty]

Does anyone know how to set the encoding of an XmlDocument object?

I am building and modifying an XML DOM in a java program heavily working with the XML API with no problems (except truly ghastly coding). But when I write the XML to a file and open the it in a text editor, the document structure is well-formed and valid except that the encoding is set (by the java XML processor apparently) to cP1252:

[red]<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; encoding=&quot;Cp1252&quot;?>[/red]

I can change this encoding manually to:

[red]<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; encoding=&quot;windows-1252&quot;?>[/red]

or

[red]<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; encoding=&quot;iso-8859-1&quot; ?>[/red]

and the document will then show up in a IE but that is not a very good solution. I don't know much about encodings but if anyone know how to set this from the java application or any other related suggestions, I would appreciate it greatly.

I've looked through the com.sun.xml.tree API and can't find anything that looks like a possible method. [sig]<p>--Will Duty<br><a href=mailto:wduty@radicalfringe.com>wduty@radicalfringe.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br> [/sig]

If anyone was going to post, thanks but I figured it out. If interested, it's in one of the write methods:

XmlDocument.write(Writer w, String encoding)

Anyone else out there working with the java XML classes? Thoughts or comments in general welcome. [sig]<p>--Will Duty<br><a href=mailto:wduty@radicalfringe.com>wduty@radicalfringe.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br> [/sig]
