Encoding/decoding problems

[Deniz Dogan]

I'm fetching an XML document that's uses iso-8859-1 coding with 
`url-retrieve' and then I parse it using `xml-parse-region'.

After that, I get the parts of the document that I want and insert them 
into a buffer.  However, the Swedish characters å, ä and ö are displayed 
as \345, \344 and \326 respectively.

I've tried messing around with `encode-coding-region' and 
`decode-coding-region' but I'm really not sure what to do here.

Any help appreciated!
