QHtml Encoding Problems

Hi there,

I am running QHtml to get a Website with German chars.
For some reason they are not encoded (e.g. &auml), but come raw ('Ã¤').

After getting it, I want to to run it through HTML tidy (to make it valid XML) and then parse it and search for text, but the German chars are not processed correctly.

main.cpp:

Code:

#include <QtCore/QCoreApplication>
#include <QProcess>
#include <QBuffer>
#include <QDomDocument>
#include <iostream>
#include "synchttp.h"
#include <QFile>
 
using namespace std;
 
int main(int argc, char **argv )
{
	QCoreApplication a(argc, argv);
	QBuffer buffer;
	SyncHTTP http("back2hack.cc");
	http.syncGet("/", &buffer);
	QByteArray ar = buffer.data();
	ar.replace("Ã¤", "ae");
	QProcess process;
	QStringList arguments;
	arguments << "-q" << "-asxml";
	process.start("./tidy", arguments );
	process.waitForStarted();
	process.write(ar);
	process.waitForBytesWritten();
	process.closeWriteChannel();
 
	process.waitForFinished();
	QByteArray array = process.readAllStandardOutput();
	//std::cout << array.data();
	QDomDocument doc;
	QString error;
	int row, column;
	doc.setContent(array, false, &error, &row, &column );
	std::cout << error.toLatin1().data();
	//std::cout << doc.firstChild().toText().data().toLatin1().data();
	QString text;
	QList<QDomNode> l;
	QDomElement element = doc.documentElement();
	QDomNode c = element.firstChild();
	while(!c.isNull()) {
		QDomNode n = c.nextSibling();
		while(!c.isNull()) {
			if(c.toElement().text() == "Blogsystem: EintrÃ¤ge absteigend sortieren" )
				l.append(c);
			c = c.nextSibling();
		}
		n = n.firstChild();
	}
	foreach(QDomNode n, l) {
		cout << qPrintable(n.toElement().text());
		cout << qPrintable(n.toElement().tagName());
		cout << l.length();
	}
	QFile file("pwn");
	file.open(QFile::WriteOnly);
	file.write(buffer.data());
	return 0;
}

synchttp.h:

What could be the reason?
