Unable to parse special characters using NSXMLParser

• JanakiRam Unable to parse special characters using NSXMLParser Oct 16 2008, 20:24
  Hi All,
  
  I'm having problems with NSXMLParser while parsing XML File which contain
  some special characters or Non-UTF Characters,
  
  My application will get the XML Document data from my server.  I'm creating
  the NSXMLParser with NSData received from Server. Some times it could be
  possible that received NSData may contain special characters such as "Ä?" ,
  then parser stops itself and returns an error saying Invalid Character
  Found. Here is the Exact Error am receiving ---
  
  *NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 9*
  
  Please provide your valuable suggestions to solve the problem.
  
  Thanks in Advance.

  How can there be a non-UTF character?
  
  XML files typically begin with their encoding. I'd guess that your
  file is not in the proper encoding (UTF-8 is usually best).
