Parsing XML with Unicode characters in Coldfusion
问题 I'm connecting to an external API using cfhttp, with the returned data in XML format. I have no control over the API or the format it's returned in. When the data is returned, I loop through it and do cfquery inserts into my own MySQL database, which has a UTF8 charset. However, some of the data appears to have unicode characters (it appears it should be the £ (pound) sign, but when I cfdump the XMLParsed data, it's showing as a diamond with a ? inside). I've attached a cropped screenshot
