XML hex encoding

[Edwin Knoppert]

On internet i find the example:

<

working fine and results in a

<

Full XML:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<doc>
    <assembly code="1234">&#x3C;ZA&#xA;&#xD;A&#x9;dddd #x9, aaaa#xA bbb#xD

    </assembly>
</doc>

If i change 3C for 00 it does not seem to work but then, my debug ends the string anyway due char 0 so i tested again with 9.

char 0 gives me using (PB's) asc()... 0 but 9 gives 90 and i assume it's skipping it and takes the Z from ZA

One must be able to embed all charcodes from 0 to 255 right?

CDATA is your friend

CDATA Sections

In a document, a CDATA section instructs the parser to ignore most markup characters.

Consider a source code listing in an XML document. It might contain characters that the XML parser would ordinarily recognize as markup (< and &, for example). In order to prevent this, a CDATA section can be used.

<![CDATA[
*p = &q;
b = (i <= 3);
]]>

Between the start of the section, “<![CDATA[” and the end of the section, “]]>”, all character data is passed directly to the application.

The only string that cannot occur in a CDATA section is “]]>”. Note: comments are not recognized in a CDATA section. If present, the literal text “<!--comment-->” will be passed directly to the application.

OK, thanks,

Any brief hint on which way to load it?
Or is it a normal element?
