MSXML2 to Load xml document using ISO-8859-1 encoding

[Neet]

HI
My application connects to the UPS server which returns an ISO-8859-1 encoded XML response. I need a part of this response, ie. the AccessLicenseAgreement , which i need to display in my application and then return to the UPS server with the next request. Their server matches what they sent me with what i return back to them. Due to the difference in the encoding method it returns an Invalid AccessLicenseAgreement error back to me. I set my request Processing Instruction to ISO-8859-1 encoding, but i still get the same error from them. I am guessing the problem is when i read it in using Loadxml to read in the string thats returned, that it changes the encoding, though i am not sure. Can anyone help me with this issue

thanks

Most likely. Avoid LoadXml, read directly from the stream.

Hi there!

As i understand from the UPS rate and service guide I need to create an XML post to the UPS online tool server and get a response XML.

Could anyone guide me with how to code in .net C# to post the XML to the server? I am could not find any documentation to the same.

Kind Regards
Yoshita
