Part `<` and part `<` in one NSData

Question

I'm accessing http://graphical.weather.gov/xml/SOAP_server/ndfdXMLserver.php using code generated by http://sudzc.com

The SOAP message is being sent and I can see the returned message and here I've a screenshot for the NSData that I print out in connectionDidFinishLoading.

Wired thing is, symbol < shows up correct at the beginning, but then it's <.

Can anyone suggest how can I fix this?

I'm not sure if you can simply apply an existing encoding like how the handy function stringByReplacingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding: exists, but if an existing solution doesn't exist, you can always use stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:withString:.

I would try and look around for an encoding converter first though, because I see that < isn't the only entity in your text. > exists as well.

I checked the WSDL for this web service, it actually returns a xml in the html body part.

<message name="NDFDgenByDayResponse">
   <part name="dwmlByDayOut" type="xsd:string" />
</message>

So that respond is actually correct and I will just have to parse it on my own.
