The username (the small arrows) are not UTF8 compattible but the XML header does say:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Re: XML not UTF8 compattible

I don't understand your problem.

The URL is URL encoded. This is not an error.

Re: XML not UTF8 compattible

It's not the url.. it's the username.
that one has characters that are not in the UTF8 code tables.

Re: XML not UTF8 compattible

Interesting. Fascinating, even. But still not wrong. U+001A is a valid Unicode control character. Either the user managed to enter control characters when submitting the name, or they supplied invalid input which was converted to U+001A (which is the substitution character).

Would you like the techs to remove the unprintable characters?

Re: XML not UTF8 compattible

That would be great.
Also, it might be polite to inform the user also.. it's not anyone I know.
