See more XML Examples

Demonstrates how to force the content of a node to be encapsulated in CDATA.

The output of the following program is an XML document that looks like this:


<root>
    <year>2009</year>
    <junk1>abc .. &lt; &amp; &gt; 123</junk1>
    <junk2><![CDATA[abc .. < & > 123]]></junk2>
</root>
