    <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I'm reading XML data directly from an Oracle DB BLOB field which is working fine except that certain characters are not parsed properly.&amp;nbsp; The word "Qualität" for example is parsed as "QualitÃ¤t".&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;From what I can tell all the XMLs have prober encoding defined, see below:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;LI-CODE lang="markup"&gt;&amp;lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&amp;gt;&lt;/LI-CODE&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When loading the XML data I tried to enforce UTF-8 encoding but unfortunately it didn't help. Characters are still not shown correctly. Code:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;LI-CODE lang="python"&gt;LOAD *
From_Field (xml,data) (utf8,XmlSimple, Table is ...)&lt;/LI-CODE&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any ideas what the problem might be?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
