Hiya,
I'm writing an app that let's my client upload images, the image
html code
is added to an XML file.
Take a look at the <image> element below:
<item Code="e1022">
<code>e1022</code>
<image><![CDATA[<img src="uploads/image2.jpg" alt="Homepage
Image"
width="124" height="70" />]]></image>
<name>Blue Ski Trousers</name>
<price>8.99</price>
</item>
Now, whenever PHP writes this to the XML files, it turns the < and
> into
< and > . which means it does not display on the webpage.
How can I
prevent this from happening ?
str_replace?
Does the xml string get passed to htmlentities() or a similar
function before it is sent to the browser? That would explain the
substitutions. I saw an xmlentities() variation mentioned somewhere.

Hi Bob,
Nope the string doesn't get passed into any function.
Here is the XML:
_________________________________________________________________
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<clothes>
<item Code="e1021">
<code>e1021</code>
<image><![CDATA[<img src="uploads/image1.jpg" alt="Homepage
Image" width="124" height="70" border="1"
onclick="MM_openBrWindow('uploads/
image1.jpg','Preview','width=680,height=520')" />]]></image>
<name>Red Jacket</name>
<desc>An adult sized red jacket</desc>
<size>adult</size>
<price>12.99</price>
</item>
<item Code="e1022">
<code>e1022</code>
<image><![CDATA[<img src="uploads/image2.jpg" alt="Homepage
Image" width="124" height="70" border="1"
onclick="MM_openBrWindow('uploads/
image2.jpg','Preview','width=680,height=520')" />]]></image>
<name>Blue Ski Trousers</name>
<desc>A pair of Blue Ski Trousers</desc>
<size>child</size>
<price>8.99</price>
</item>
</clothes>

Now the image tags I have written here I have done manually, but when
I use PHP using DOM they come out like this (note the image element):
<item Code="e1024">
<code>e1024</code>
<image><![CDATA[<img src="uploads/image4.jpg" alt="Homepage
Image" width="124" height="70" border="1"
onclick="MM_openBrWindow('uploads/
image4.jpg','Preview','width=680,height=520')" />]]></image>
<name>orange top</name>
<desc>an orange jacket</desc>
<size>large</size>
<price>14.50</price>
</item>
