If you trace it as a string, then you'll see the CDATA. If you trace it as
XML then you will not see the CDATA.
ElectroServer is a multiuser chat server that Mike (my coworker) and I
created a few years ago. The chat client uses this method to send funky data
that normally would break the text node. It works.
So I would just test it out with what ever application you are communicating
with to see if it worked. Even if you can't see the CDATA after converting
it to XML.

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] createTextNode with CDATA
jobe, it seems I'm doing something wrong.
here is my code:
__xmlString += "<attr id=\"" + obj.screenInputValues[i].id + "\" name=\""
+ obj.screenInputValues[i].name + "\"><![CDATA[\" +
obj.screenInputValues[i].value + "]]></attr>";
this is an ouptput example:
<attr id="731" name="learn">1</attr>
it prints all the values but not the CDATA around the "1".
do I miss something?
Cheers, Diego.

In Flash I've always opted to create XML as a string, and then when I'm
done do this:
var myXML:XML = new XML(theString);
If you do it that way then CDATA definately works.

There is no way to create an actual CDATA node in Flash, at least not
with Version 8 or lower. You have to resort to escaping the string so
that it doesn't have invalid characters or not use XMLNode for this.

hey guys,
I want to create a xml node with CDATA, I'm doing in this way:
var temp:XMLNode = doc.createTextNode("<![CDATA[" +
obj.screenInputValues[i].value + "]]>");
the issue is that it prints < in the output.
<attr name="learn" id="731"><![CDATA[some text]]></attr>
any pointer on this,
cheers, Diego.
