[Original Message: I'm wondering if someone has experienced a problem with
IE, where a
character in a CDATA section is returned as an entity reference????]
[Reply: That sounds like the expected behaviour of any XML parser, doesn't
it?
the input "<![CDATA[ < ]]>" is identical to the input " < "
and when serialising the XML containing that string, a system may
use either form, seeing as they are equivalent.]
[Reply-to-reply: You are probably right, and I am far from being qualified
to answer your initial question/remark. However, I found that if I
represented the character with "char(60)," my JavaScript worked properly on
the client. Probably common sense to a lot of you, but maybe it will help
some of the newbies, like myself :) Thanks for all the replies.]
