1) If the data in the file are in a different encoding than utf8 you
have to specify the encoding! So adding the encoding=iso8859-1 was
the right thing to do. The other option would be to create the XML in
utf8.
2) No matter what's the original encoding, the XML parser returns the
data in UTF8. If you want to print it somewhere and treat it as
iso8859-1 you have to transform it. See
