Hi - I am having a problem with the syntax within an XML file I have created. Basically I am trying to use a CDATA block (code) on the same line as other attributes...

<example>
<item label="label string" data="data string" code=<![CDATA[string <br> second string <br> third string]]>
</example>

I am reading the attribute values through Flash Actionscript and although I can get values of label and data I am unable to get the code value. Obviously I have the syntax wrong in the XML file but I am struggling to discover what it. Any help would be appreciated
 
There is no such thing as CDATA section for attribute value. Just escape those xml escapable entities (the opening and closing angle brackets in this case).
