I do not see ANY REASON, why XML can not support inside tags high-asciis
chars...

Than more, we have test IE 6.0 on Windows, and they support Russian text
everywhere. But again, they use UTF-16 I think.

Yes, I also have think about this. But I do not like this,
because it produce 2 more words for EACH !!! field.

Or I can spend several hours to make EXPAT work as I want...

Or to find new XML parser...

Or at last of end to get help from author of EXPAT...
