CDATASection
The CDATASection interface represents a CDATA section
that can be used within XML to include extended portions of unescaped text.
When inside a CDATA section, the symbols < and & don't need escaping
as they normally do.
In XML, a CDATA section looks like:
xml
<![CDATA[ … ]]>
For example:
xml
<foo>
Here is a CDATA section: <![CDATA[ < > & ]]> with all kinds of unescaped text.
</foo>
The only sequence which is not allowed within a CDATA section is the closing sequence
of a CDATA section itself, ]]>.
Note: CDATA sections should not be used within HTML they are considered as comments and not displayed.
