xml Escaping
Remarks
Characters can be escaped in XML using entity references and character references, or CDATA sections.
XML pre-defines five entities:
| Named entity | Replacement text |
|---|---|
| amp | & |
| quot | " |
| apos | ' |
| lt | < |
| gt | > |
Consuming applications will not know whether each character has been escaped or not, and how.
