XML Strings with special Characters
Hi All,
I am trying to set the string content of an element.
I simply do parentName.setName("kathir&");
The problem is that the string contains ampersands (&). In the xml i am getting & instead of getting &
I need to get the output xml with & as &
Please help me.
Thanks,
J.Kathir

The easiest way to set Strings containing "special characters" that you
do not want parsed is to wrap them in a CDATA section:
http://www.w3.org/TR/xml11/#dt-cdsection
The solution for your example would be:
parentName.setName("<![CDATA[kathir&]]>");
Cheers,
~ David
