Dan,
Thanks for the tip, getting closer! One thing I want to now have is for all
the ">" symbols to be converted to ">" to mimic the behavior of the
existing Web Service client (C# based).
Any thoughts on how I might do that?
It shouldn't be necessary - both forms are equivalent XML and will come
out the same at the other end. The only characters that absolutely must
be escaped in XML are < (<) and & (&), plus and single or double
quotes that occur in attribute values delimited by the same type of
quote (i.e. attr=""" is the same as attr='"', attr=''' is the
same as attr="'"). Many processors also escape > (>) and
non-attribute ' and " characters, but that isn't required by the spec.
Either way, all the escaping will have been removed by the time the
other end sees the value.
