You could load it yourself and then look for & characters that aren't
known entities and change them to "&".
I wouldn't recommend this approach--malformed XML is bad--but
sometimes you've gotta do what you gotta do.

Hello,
I'm trying to load an HTML page as an XML object like this:
The page seems to be malformed, so the NSXMLDocument becomes nil
and 'anError' contains a lot of errors:
NSError "line 78 column 26 - Warning: unescaped & or unknown
entity "&city"
line 78 column 45 - Warning: unescaped & or unknown entity "&state"
line 78 column 66 - Warning: unescaped & or unknown entity
"&adc_partner"
line 78 column 91 - Warning: unescaped & or unknown entity
"&interest"
line 78 column 115 - Warning: unescaped & or unknown entity
"&traveler"
...
<skipping lots of errors>
...
207 warnings, 42 errors were found! Not all warnings/errors were
shown.
This document has errors that must be fixed before
using HTML Tidy to generate a tidied up version.
The above code used to work fine, but it looks like
'www.accuweather.com' has changed the way it outputs HTML code. I'm
using NSXMLDocument because I need to extract certain elements from
the document. Is there a way for NSXML to be more forgiving about
these errors, or will I have to parse the document with my own code?
Thanks,
