DOM Format

I had a couple of questions on DOM writing
  1. Is there a method to convert a string with special escape characters(<
> &... etc). 
  2. How far is pretty printing implemented. I need a formatted output
giving proper indents
     so that the resulting XML is viewable in a text editor. If not, could I
override anything
     in the DOMWriter to plug in this functionality.

Thanks
Kiran

They get escaped on the way out by default.

Its not that advanced yet. Have a look at DOMWriterImpl. If you do make 
improvements then post them to the list. We would all like to see it :).
