CDATASection object
The CDATASection object represents a CDATA section in the document.
The CDATA section contains text that will not be parsed by the parser. Tags in a CDATA section are not treated as tags, and entities are not expanded. The main purpose is to contain material such as XML fragments without escaping all delimiters.
The only recognized delimiter in a CDATA section is "]]>", which marks the end of the CDATA section. CDATA sections cannot be nested.
