I was able to apply the template that serialize the elements, but it
stripped the spacing between the nodes:

<cc><![CDATA[Frame 2 text goes here<b>Bold Text</b>Some more text]]></
cc>

Should look like:

<cc><![CDATA[Frame 2 text goes here <b>Bold Text</b> Some more
text]]></cc>

Any thoughts on how to keep the white space?
