I modified the JavaScript code so now there are no "&" and it's working properly!But you are right that behaviour is "strange".And as we say: -Kaji baba:"Thank you"! -"Thank you!" Thanks anyway.

CDATA displays what you show as it is. That's why JavaScripts in XML files are enclosed by CDATA sections- you keep the exact same characters, therefore use the script and you don't interfere with the parser.Show the full "broken" code please. I don't see a problem.[edit] A closer examination... When you write something like "<hr />" inside an XML element, it's treated as an XML element. Using "<hr />" instead returns the charaters "<" and ">" in the place of the entity codes, so therefore you get litteral the litteral text "<hr />". Using "<![CDATA[<hr />]]>" means that the parser shows litterly what's inside the CDATA section, which in our case is again the plain text <hr />. However, that doesn't mean that the special characters in CDATA were transformed to entites. They were just displayed on the screen as one whole (copy and paste or so to say) the same way as "<![CDATA[<hr />]]>" would have resulted in the litteral text "<hr />" .[/edit]

Where every "&" was converted into & intro the representing HTML

The problem is the following:"<![CDATA[" && "]]>" , where "&&" is been parsed by XML parser and converted into: &&. In result CDATA code is been brocken.
