You need to either hex or base64 encode the value, to ensure that the resulting text does not contain any problem-causing characters. Onfortunately, although XML does provide a basic character escaping mechanism, control characters are not even allowed escaped. The MSXML DOM (and MSXML SAX writer) do not validate that the characters are all valid. -derek p.s. See http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#charsets for the exact list of valid characters. | ||||||
