Remarks
All text inside XML document is parsed by the XML parser. Only the text inside the CDATA section is ignored by the parser. If your text has lots of "<", ">", "&", "'", and "" (like program code), it could be hidden in CDATA section.
For example,
<test>
<![CDATA[
if a > b & b > c, then a > c
]]>
</test>
In the example above, everything inside CDATA section was ignored by the parser. It would show <test>if a > b & b > c, then a > c</test> in any web browser.
Example of creating such CDATA section using IXMLWriter:
Dim pXMLStream as IXMLStream
Set pXMLStream = new XMLStream
Dim pXMLWriter as IXMLWriter
Set pXMLWriter = new XMLWriter
pXMLWriter.WriteTo pXMLStream
pXMLWriter.WriteCData "if a > b & b > c, then a > c"
