Well, that does not work either. Both cases fail:


<?xml version=3D"1.0" standalone=3D"yes"?>
<document>
 <aphorism>Shit happens</aphorism>
 <author>unknown</author>
 <language>English</language>
 <more>=D8</more>
</document>



<?xml version=3D"1.0" standalone=3D"yes"?>
<document>
 <aphorism>Shit happens</aphorism>
 <author>unknown</author>
 <language>English</language>
 <more>&Oslash;</more>
</document>


and they fail at the same line - both & and even &amp;slash; (someone
suggested that) and =D8 fail.... how do I overcome this?
