Problem with parsing XML

So I have an XML document with é and other non-XML chars.
I'm wondering the best way to parse this using xml.dom.minidom.

I've tried using a translation document to transmate é to é
But now the characters just disappear.
Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Use DOCTYPE entity declarations?

Like this:

<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [<!ENTITY nbsp " ">]>

You can define &eacute too.
