also a baddie.

All, thanks for the help with this issue. Using CDATA
didn't work as apparently CF does parse whatever's
within the CDATA block and was still choking on the
bad character. I ultimately implemented the rereplace
suggested by S. Isaac, and after some tweaking it
worked. Here's the final
Hello All,
When creating an xml document using cfxml, I get the following error:

I opt to store user-defined data in CDATA blocks:
root
mytag![CDATA[#userDefinedStuff#]]/mytag
/root
Another route is to use the XMLFormat() function.

If you ever have characters that could make the xml mis-formed,
especially all user entered data, put it in a cdata.
root
node![CDATA[
my ' bad / data

/root
That will parse just fine.

The only problem with this is that that you have to add stuff that you want
removed.
You could also list what's allowed, vs. what's not allowed, like
cffunction name=safeString returntype=string
mystring =
rereplace(mystring,[#chr(1)#-#chr(8)##chr(11)#-#chr(12)##
chr(14)#-#chr(31)#],,ALL);
