The only delimiter that is + * recognized in a CDATA section is the "]]>" string that ends the CDATA + * section. CDATA sections cannot be nested. Their primary purpose is for + * including material such as XML fragments, without needing to escape all + * the delimiters. + *

The DOMString attribute of the Text node holds + * the text that is contained by the CDATA section. Note that this may + * contain characters that need to be escaped outside of CDATA sections and + * that, depending on the character encoding ("charset") chosen for + * serialization, it may be impossible to write out some characters as part + * of a CDATA section. + *

The CDATASection interface inherits from the + * CharacterData interface through the Text + * interface. Adjacent CDATASection nodes are not merged by use + * of the normalize method of the Node interface. + * Because no markup is recognized within a CDATASection, + * character numeric references cannot be used as an escape mechanism when + * serializing. Therefore, action needs to be taken when serializing a + * CDATASection with a character encoding where some of the + * contained characters cannot be represented. Failure to do so would not + * produce well-formed XML.One potential solution in the serialization + * process is to end the CDATA section before the character, output the + * character using a character reference or entity reference, and open a new + * CDATA section for any further characters in the text node. Note, however, + * that some code conversion libraries at the time of writing do not return + * an error or exception when a character is missing from the encoding, + * making the task of ensuring that data is not corrupted on serialization + * more difficult. + *
