Perhaps you could encode the data in BASE64?

Subject: binary data in an XML file



I have a file that has some binary data in one of the elements. when I
tried opening this document with an XML editor it gave me some errors.If
i try parsing this file with DOM/SAX it gives me a runtime Exception and
then machine just hangs up. I then tried adding the binary data in a
CDATA section instead. That did not help either.
My Questions are:
Is it possible to have binary data in an xml file.?
Is it possible to parse such a file with DOM/SAX? If yes, some pointers
on how to proceed will be appreciated.
I am using the Borland C++ builder on a Windows98/2000 machine.
