I have the following simple script running on 2.5.2 on a machine where the default character encoding is "ascii":
#!/usr/bin/env python #coding: utf-8 import xml.dom.minidom import codecs str=u"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?><elements><elem attrib= \"รณ\"/></elements>" doc=xml.dom.minidom.parseString( str ) xml=doc.toxml( encoding="utf-8" ) file=codecs.open( "foo.xml", "w", "utf-8" ) file.write( xml ) file.close() I've specified utf-8 every place I can find that the documentation allows me to, and yet this doesn't even come close to working without UnicodeEncodeErrors. What on Earth do I have to do to please the character encoding gods? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
