Rich Text Editor ---> XML, ASP and CDATA

[gifster83]

I am tryin to get some text form a rich text editor and feed it through to XML using ASP and then use ASP to put it display it as html (has to be ASP for copyright reasons).

It needs to be able to handle entities(!"£$%^&*) and so on but also understand and display <b>Bold Text</b> and so on, I now that CDATA works for handling!"£$%^&*() but doesn't work with <b>bold</b> or <i>italic</i> text, and it justs displays the tags on screen. Without CDATA it completely ignores the tags. :-S

I am a bit lost now... Help!!!

(!"£$%^&*) all these are valid XML except the '&'. Do a string replace in ASP for '&' with '&amp;'
