Just do your opening tag like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?>

the "Encoding" part takes care of 90% of those issues for you, most XML
parsers will have no problem with this. Ran into the same issue when I was
doing an XMLRPC implementation to transmit purchase orders to a business
partner. Our database had loads of those "illegal" chars and adding the
"encoding" part took care of it.

At least, using MSXML-DOM.
