Hi Don,
thanks for pointing out that my post was not that clear - I did not suggest to copy the Linux magic file to AIX (and am nearly sure that it would not work), but my post can be interpreted like that.
The magic file would be my starting point if I'd have to solve JeanM-1's problem (and the Byte Order Mark the first thing I'd start playing around with to see if I get anywhere).

xml_parser_create_ns - Create an XML parser with namespace support

SYNOPSIS
resource xml_parser_create_ns ([string $encoding], [string $separator = ":"]) DESCRIPTION
xml_parser_create_ns(3) creates a new XML parser with XML namespace support and returns a resource handle referencing it to be used by the other XML functions. PARAMETERS
o $encoding - The optional $encoding specifies the character encoding for the input/output in PHP 4. Starting from PHP 5, the input encoding is automatically detected, so that the $encoding parameter specifies only the output encoding. In PHP 4, the default output encod- ing is the same as the input charset. In PHP 5.0.0 and 5.0.1, the default output charset is ISO-8859-1, while in PHP 5.0.2 and upper is UTF-8. The supported encodings are ISO-8859-1, UTF-8 and US-ASCII. o $separator - With a namespace aware parser tag parameters passed to the various handler functions will consist of namespace and tag name sep- arated by the string specified in $separator. RETURN VALUES
Returns a resource handle for the new XML parser. SEE ALSO
