Hi,

on my site I use rss feeds. I have problem with words that have accents, they are displayed wrong:



The carset I use should be fine:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

So where is the problem?

You need to check the encoding that you are using for the feeds data.
It seems like utf-8 text rendered with iso-8859-1 (as you have specified as encoding).

The code of the script is here, what should I change or add?

<marquee scrollamount = 2 width = 250 onmouseover="stop();" onmouseout="start();">
<?php

set_time_limit(0);
$nbsp = " ";
//The file below is the source xml file, this is the only thing you need change if you want to change source
$file = "http://www.gazzetta.it/rss/Basket.xml";

$rss_channel = array();
$currently_writing = "";
$main = "";
$item_counter = 0;

function startElement($parser, $name, $attrs) {
   	global $rss_channel, $currently_writing, $main;
   	switch($name) {
   		case "RSS":
   		case "RDF:RDF":
   		case "ITEMS":
   			$currently_writing = "";
   			break;
   		case "CHANNEL":
   			$main = "CHANNEL";
   			break;
   		case "IMAGE":
   			$main = "IMAGE";
   			$rss_channel["IMAGE"] = array();
   			break;
   		case "ITEM":
   			$main = "ITEMS";
   			break;
   		default:
   			$currently_writing = $name;
   			break;
   	}
}

function endElement($parser, $name) {
   	global $rss_channel, $currently_writing, $item_counter;
   	$currently_writing = "";
   	if ($name == "ITEM") {
   		$item_counter++;
   	}
