Search API

This is wrong, it should return special characters encoded as declared by the XML header

This actually makes the Cocoa XML Parser to fail, unless I clean the xml before.

The search API is bugged, it returns text with special characters encoded like HTML (stuff like "). This is wrong, it should return special characters encoded as declared by the XML header (in our case UTF-8).

For everybody who has problems with HTML entities in XML (yes, these are illegal, period).
Just force the encoding to "latin1" and use DTD for XHTML-transitional-latin1 to parse HTML entities into valid chars, then recode into UTF-8

htmlentties($string)

htmlentities($string, ENT_COMPAT, "UTF-8")

htmlentities($string) --> å°ï¿½å¥³äººå½¢

htmlentities($string, ENT_COMPAT, "UTF-8") --> 少女人形

Hi Guys. I am trying to create a MAL app and it's my first time using the unofficial app. See my code

var get_db = function (url,form_data,op) {
$.get(
''http://mal-api.com/anime/search',
{format: 'xml', q:'haruhi'},
function(data) {
$('#result').text(data);
}
);
}

If I remove the format and default it will give me an error:

Origin http://localhost is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin

If I specify a format it doesn't show the error. But I can't verify if there's data in it. I maybe doing this wrong, so I would like to ask some guidance on this.

Oh. I am using JQUERY in case you didn't know.

Thanks.
