Zend_Feed import problem

I just noticed this error using Zend_Feed::import()

DOMDocument cannot parse XML: DOMDocument::loadXML() [domdocument.loadxml]: Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding ! Bytes: 0x93 0x74 0x68 0x65 in Entity, line: 26

It shows that the Zend_Feed does not work with ñ or equivalent characters in the xml. Is there any workaround with this? Did somebody experienced this error?

Thanks,
art

Actually, it's not Zend_Feed that doesn't work with it... it's PHP's own
DOMDocument.

Typically, these sorts of issues are due to mixing encodings -- make
sure you are actually receiving UTF-8 when you pass data to Zend_Feed.

Thanks Matthew for a quick reply. I'll try to find some other alternatives other than directly call Zend_Feed::import

Thanks,
