    <p>I'm creating an RSS feed for a site. </p> <p>I am using SimpleXML to create the XML structure. When I call $xml->asXML();, it throws many warnings:</p> <pre><code>ErrorException [ Warning ]: SimpleXMLElement::asXML() [simplexmlelement.asxml]: string is not in UTF-8 </code></pre> <p>I'm not sure what this error is. The database table it is reading from is utf8_general_ci. I tried running utf_encode on the string which messed up the strings instead of fixing it.</p> <pre><code>//First create the XML root $xml = new SimpleXMLElement('&lt;rss version="2.0"&gt;&lt;/rss&gt;'); //Create the Channel $channel = $xml-&gt;addChild('channel'); //Construct the feed parameters $channel-&gt;addChild('title', 'CGarchitect Feed'); $channel-&gt;addChild('link', Config::get('base_url')); $channel-&gt;addChild('description', 'CGarchitect is the leading online community for architectural visualization professionals.'); $channel-&gt;addChild('pubDate', date("D, d M Y H:i:s T")); //Get the feed items $nodes = &lt;....snip... &gt; foreach ($nodes as $node) { //Parse the title and description $title = htmlentities(strip_tags($node-&gt;title)); $description = htmlentities(strip_tags($node-&gt;description)); $newItem = $channel-&gt;addChild('item'); $newItem-&gt;addChild('title', $title); $newItem-&gt;addChild('description', $description); $newItem-&gt;addChild('pubDate', date("D, d M Y H:i:s T", $node-&gt;published_at)); } header('Content-Type: application/xhtml+xml'); echo $xml-&gt;asXML(); </code></pre> <p>Thanks in advance...</p> <p>Leonard</p>

    3. COAre you sure, that you are using a UTF-8 connection to the database? Do this query at the very first time, after you established the connection: mysql_query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
