CDATA

The problem is not the escaping -- it's easy to replace with or to use a CDATA section -- but the encoding.

This can be a problem for most current browsers, as they do not like the CDATA block.

This first selects all of the children with the tag name content, then gets the CDATA text from within the found nodes.

In addition to general text data, XML can also be used to store binary data through a special set of tags known as CDATA.

CDATA (character data) sections are treated as a block of data by the parser, allowing you to include any character in the data stream.

A better solution might be to put the data directly into your XML document. That's where XML's CDATA section comes into play.

XML CDATA sections contain raw text that should be included, but not parsed, with the XML that contains it.

Another important reason to use CDATA is to preserve the exact formating of data.
