[nycphp-talk] SimpleXML - UTF8

I hope there is an easy answer to this:

I am using a remote XML service, that about 1 in 100 times returns XML
with invalid UTF-8 bytes.  I don't have any control over the remote
service, but simpleXML pukes when I pass malformed UTF-8 to it.  Does
anyone know of a simple way to cleanup bad UTF-8 bytes, e.g. replace
the invalid bytes with a '?'.

Rgds,
