Pyexpat and iso-8859-1

[Marc Jeurissen]

When I parse a XML-file containing the declaration '<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="iso-8859-1"?>' with Pyexpat, every iso-latin1 character is
being replaced by 2 new characters, the first of wich is nearly always
#195 (Ã), the second one has a decimal value of 64 less than the
original character value.

Some examples:

#233 (é) becomes #195 + #169 (©)
#231 (ç) becomes #195 + #167 (§)
#239 (ï) becomes #195 + #175 (¯)

Anyone knows what to do about this?

Thank you.
