escape() is for url encoding, which is not the same as xml encoding. Though it would work ok, since all the relevent XML special chars would be also escaped there.
Flash's XML object does not support <![CDATA[]]>. When you load XML containing CDATA, it simply XML-encodes the contents. If XML-encoding is enough for you, you can do it like this: var rawText:String = "blah blah 1 < 2 & 2 > 1!"; var encodedText:XMLNode = new XMLNode(3, rawText); myXML.firstChild.appendChild(encodedText); Peter On 6/6/06, Marlon Harrison <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Is using the escape() function out of the question for your application?
