Hi,
Please help me solve this issue:

I am trying to create an XML from a string which I am passing from java class.
In the string, I am forwarding some hyperlinks and some data which I want to get displayed as BOLD or ITALIC but XML doesn’t retain that.

Thanks with Regards,
Sulabh

Are you just trying to have a browser read an XML document and display it?

XML markup that is not HTML will confuse any browser with strange results.

(If so, I recommend you use FireFox with the Firebug plugin to see what the browser is trying to cope with.)

try enclosing the xml formatted string in a <cdata> section
