character "è"

[mickey0]

hello,
I wrote a program that write on disk xml tags; problem is that that file on the disk contains text like:

................
<hello>
è molto bello
</hello>
...............

All it seems right but I tried to open this .xml wuth a xmlNotepad and appears a message that says that "è" it's bad; so I had to change it in "e' " and all goes fine now....But I need "è" in the xml. How can I do?

thanks...

I suggest using another program besides XML Notepad.

Also check that your encoding lin the first line, eg
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
is either UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1
