in thread XML::Parser does not parse the Symbol

Yes,if the data is in 8859-1, then it should be marked as such. Otherwise it's not proper XML, it won't parse with any proper parser.

Make sure it is indeed in ISO-8859-1 though, sometimes it is in windows 1251, which is similar to ISO-8859-1 but not quite (some of the code points are used for different characters, like the smart quotes).
