Hi,
I read "Why does setText(" ") not do what I want?" in FAQ but I do not
understand the 2 solutions.
>The solution is to pass regular Unicode characters to the setText()

>SAXBuilder and DOMBuilder classes do.
I pass the characters with the Windows tool charmap.exe that produces unicode.
It works fine with some unicode characters (for example Ç) but not with
all. Alpha & # 945 ; or Beta & # 946 ; are not working, these are transferred
to & amp ; # 945 ;
So the 2nd solution is to parse text data, in my case these are strings.
But how can I parse text data which is not in a XML format?
This is what I'm doing:
Element root = new Element("Rootelement");
Document document = new Document(root);
root.addContent(new Element("FirstElement").setText(ContentElement));
In a Java servlet I get strings like ContentElement from a html form which can
contain unicode characters like '& # 945 ;' Then I build an XML document with
these strings using method setText. The method transforms '& # 945 ;' to '& amp
; # 945 ;'
Are there any other solutions?
Thanks in advance,
John
