Hi all,

Can anyone tell me the best way to include HTML in an XML tag without
causing parsing problems?

Something like:

<item>
<name>blah</name>
<desc><font size="2">�10 each</font><br></desc>
</item>

Breaks and pound signs are a no-no in XML so... I've tried using a CDATA[]
section. But this both escapes the data within it and rejects pound signs
completely as being invalid.

I could escape the string before outputting into the XML tag, but I would
then need some way of un-escaping it in XML. Is this a possible approach?

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Ta,

--Jim
