    Hello,
    I used the Tools -> Export function. When trying to open the XML file I get the following error:
    “undeclared XML namespace prefix used in attribute name” (with line 59 highlighted)
    56: <title>Chinesische Sprichwörter</title>
    57: <link>http://sprichwort.wordpress.com</link&gt;
    58: </image>
    59: <atom:link rel=”search” type=”application/opensearchdescription+xml” href=”http://sprichwort.wordpress.com/osd.xml” title=”Chinesische Sprichwörter” />

    What can I do to fix this?

    Thanks for any help!

    What are you looking to do with the file?

    You can try opening it in a program such as Notepad.

    Hello Hanni,
    thanks for the quick reply!

    I would like to send the posts to a friend so that he can check my translations, but that would have to be as a Word or Firefox so that the Chinese Unicode content is shown formatted. Word and Firefox can’t import the file because of the error.

    I installed Notepad, the exported XML file opens without problems. I saved the file in HTML, but that file opens as a long, unformatted string of text without readable Chinese.

    Hello,

    since Notepad didn’t work and Word and Firefox can’t process the XML file because of the error message, what can I do now?

    Still needing help,
