Class DomCDATA

public class DomCDATA extends DomText implements CDATASection

"CDATASection" implementation. This is a non-core DOM class, supporting the "XML" feature. CDATA sections are just ways to represent text using different delimeters.

You are strongly advised not to use CDATASection nodes. The advantage of having slightly prettier ways to print text that may have lots of embedded XML delimiters, such as "&" and "<", can be dwarfed by the cost of dealing with multiple kinds of text nodes in all your algorithms.
