Cdata Section In The XML File

In this article, we will discuss the "CData" section in the XML file.

Purpose

"CData" is used for text data that should not be parsed by the XML parse. Characters like "<" and "&" are illegal in XML elements.

Everything inside a "CData" section is ignored by the parser.

Syntax

A "CData" section starts with "< ![CDATA[" and ends with "]] >".

Example

<![CDATA[
function matchwo(a,b)
{
if (a < b && a < 0) then
   {
   return 1;
   }
else
   {
   return 0;
   }
}
]] >
