Parsing XML with numeric entities outside Latin 1

[Laurent]

Hi,

I have an XML file with this text in it:
<price>10 &#x20AC;</price>
(just an example)

My input and output encodings are Latin 1 (ISO-8859-1).

When PHP parses it, the characterdata function outputs
10 ?
I would like it to output
10 &#x20AC;
i.e. just leave the entity as it is, as the character can't be
represented directly in Latin 1.

Is this possible ?

Thank you.
