Convert to ascii

Hello,

I whish there was a build-in function to convert all special
characters in a string to ascii values before putting the string in an
XML object.

I've been googling around but cound't find a function that does.

Grtz,

Barton

You're probably looking for the character type functions:

If not, you can probably hack away with the string functions:
