I am using DOM to create an rss feed. The problem I am running into
is "special characters" such as é è ç. If I try adding them to the
XML as character data (CData), DOM chokes and throws out errors. If I
do a search and replace on the characters changing them to HTML
entities instead of using CDATA, DOM chokes up again. If I do a
combination of both (search and replace then add as Character Data) it
does not choke, but the RSS readers don't render the html entities
because they are defined as CDATA.

Any thoughts. I could write my own writer, but I would rather use
DOM.

Suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.
