But CDATASection cant have "]]>" string as its contents according to XML 1.0, Absolutely right. A CDATA section cannot have the "]]>" string as its contents according to XML 1.0. However, DOM does not not model XML 1.0. What it actually models is 90% XML, 10% meat by-product. This is one of the by-product parts. :-) With DOM you can create a CDATASection object whose contents include the string "]]>". This cannot be written as XML, but a DOM CDATASection object is not XML. XML is text, not an object. What this property is describing is how you handle this non-XML piece in DOM when you convert the DOM object to genuine XML. -- +-----------------------+------------------------+-------------------+ | Elliotte Rusty Harold | elharo@m... | Writer/Programmer | +-----------------------+------------------------+-------------------+ | XML in a Nutshell, 2nd Edition (O'Reilly, 2002) | | http://www.cafeconleche.org/books/xian2/ | | http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN%3D0596002920/cafeaulaitA/ | +----------------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Read Cafe au Lait for Java News: http://www.cafeaulait.org/ | | Read Cafe con Leche for XML News: http://www.cafeconleche.org/ | +----------------------------------+---------------------------------+
