SAX character expansion

[Rutger Claes]

The following piece of code
<?php
$string = "<root><node>&#xA9;</node></root>";

$xp = xml_parser_create( 'ISO-8859-1' );

xml_set_element_handler( $xp, 'sh', 'eh' );
xml_set_character_data_handler( $xp, 'cd' );

xml_parser_set_option( $xp, XML_OPTION_CASE_FOLDING, false );
xml_parser_set_option( $xp, XML_OPTION_TARGET_ENCODING, 'ISO-8859-1' );

function sh( $p, $el, $at ) {
print '<'.$el.'>';
}

function eh( $p, $el ) {
print '</'.$el.'>';
}

function cd( $p, $data ) {
print $data;
}

xml_parse( $xp, $string );
?>

Will give this output when executed whith PHP 5.0.3

<root><node>©</node></root>

The replacing of &#xA9; with © is something I want to disable. Does anybody
has a solution for this?

Thanks in advance
