XML parsing works on mac but error on windows??? help

Featured Replies

I had someone write 4 XSLTs based on a sample xml file so that I can import the xml data into filemaker.

On my mac the process works perfectly...

-Select the XML file the xsl and so on.

When I try this on a windowz box I get the following error...

FileMaker Pro

XML parsing error;

An exception occured! Type:TranscodingException,

Message:Could no create a convertor or encoding ISO-8859-15

Line Number: 1

Column Number: 45

Now I'm no xml expert but the XSL was written on a PC and I am told the person whom wrote them tested them on a PC and they parsed fine.

What is going on?:

Thanks

I can post up a sample XML and the XSL if that would help?

With which XSLT processor did they test? Saxon?

It may be that the Xalan processor used with the Windows FM version does not support ISO-8859-15, which is a slightly modified ISO-8859-1 (e.g. certain chars exchanged, e.g. for the Euro sign).

Well I load the XML up into TextXSLT (mac) and loadup the XSL into the XSLT window hit then process it using Sablotron, Libxslt, Saxon, Xalan-J.

Easch processor shows me a results window with something along the lines of what is contained in the XML file.

Any ideas?

I did notice the text encoding was odd so I also tried moving from

Macintosh - western

to

Macintosh - Unicode UTF-8

also tried

Unicode - unicode UTF-8
