Stripping ISO-8859-2 characters problem

[Cezex]

Hi !

Could You tell me why iSiloXC is stripping ISO-8859-2 characters (i.e. ĘÓˇ¦ŁŻ¬ĆŃę󱶳żĽćń) when I set <charset>none</charset> in document section or simply delete these tags ?

Is there any way to generate document with ISO characters in it ?

Best regards,
Cezex

You may need to specify the source character encoding.


<Source>
...
<CharSet>ISO-8859-2</CharSet>
</Source>

You may need to specify the source character encoding.
I did it in a first place, nothing changed :( Characters are stripped or replaced with Windows-1250 encoding (I don't remember precisely right now).

Could you post one of the source files you are trying to convert?

Here it is:
- ISO http://www.redfish.org.pl/redfish/palmnews/portal.php?0;0;3;0;999
- WIN http://www.redfish.org.pl/redfish/palmnews/portal.php?1;0;3;0;999
- without polish letters http://www.redfish.org.pl/redfish/palmnews/portal.php?2;0;3;0;999

The content at http://www.redfish.org.pl/redfish/palmnews/portal.php?0;0;3;0;999 already internally specifies that the text is encoded using iso-8859-2, so there is no need to specify the default source encoding unless there is some page there that does not specify its source encoding. So as long as you set the output document encoding to none, it should work.

Testing a .ixl file with the following works just fine:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<iSiloXDocumentList>
<iSiloXDocument>
<Source>
<Sources>
<Path>http://www.redfish.org.pl/redfish/palmnews/portal.php?0;0;3;0;999</Path>
</Sources>
</Source>
<Destination>
<Title>ISO-8859-2</Title>
<Files>
<Path>iso88592.pdb</Path>
</Files>
</Destination>
<DocumentOptions>
<CharSet>none</CharSet>
</DocumentOptions>
</iSiloXDocument>
</iSiloXDocumentList>

OK, now it works. Thanks a lot !
