i am developing an application which requires XML parsing.
I am using XMLElement to read the xml file.

the sketch is the following code:

XMLElement cursos;

void setup(){
 size(200,200);
 cursos = new XMLElement(this, "http://XXXXXXXXXXXX/getcursosfoz.asp");
 XMLElement[] cursosNode = cursos.getChildren();
 for(int i = 0; i < cursosNode.length; i++){
   println(cursosNode[i].getChildren());
 }
}

the println result comes up with a small error:


[0]   <EstRes>0</EstRes>

[1]   <c1>3910</c1>

[2]   <c2>PG - Direito das Crian&#65533;as</c2>

[3]   <c3>P&#65533;s-Gradua&#65533;&#65533;o</c3>

[4]   <c4>1</c4>

in <c2> the &# xfffd; (used a space between the &# and the chars, bacause the browser was showing them wrong) should be a ç
in <c3>, the first &# xfffd; should be a ó, the second a ç the third ã
yet all come back as &# xfffd; instead of either the characters or the corresponding code for that character.

any thoughts about this error or a possible solution?
this library is preferable to others like ProXML or SimpleML, because i can load diferent XML files and use them in different ways.

i can't convert it, because it changes all characters that aren't a part of UTF-8 into a code, and that code is always the same, even if the characters are different.
