Yes, to include any unescaped XML metacharacters, you must place them within a CDATA block. > Be nice if I could do the following, but it's obvious why it breaks: > > > > I'm using iso-8859-1 encoding in the XML, but I think UTF > would be OK too.

[Flashcoders] Quotes in XML always require CDATA?
Does it HAVE to be a CDATA node in order to safely include double "quotes" in an XML file? Be nice if I could do the following, but it's obvious why it breaks: I'm using iso-8859-1 encoding in the XML, but I think UTF would be OK too. I'm grabbing it with xfactorstudios Xpath. I guess I could look for single quotes and swap that out for double quotes, but that's not ideal.
