Hello folks! welcome back to a new section of our tutorial on XML DOM. In this tutorial guide, we will be discussing about the XML DOM CDATASection Object.
The DOM CDATASection Object represents a CDATA section in a document.
The text present within an XML document is parsed or unparsed depending on what it is declared. If the text is declared as Parsed Character Data(PCDATA) it is parsed by the parser to convert an XML document into an XML DOM Object. On the other hand, if the text is declared as unparsed Character Data (CDATA) the text within is not parsed by the XML parser. These are not considered as a markup and will not expand the entities.

The primary aim of making use of the DOM CDATASection object is to escape the block of text containing characters that would be regarded as markup. The only delimiter that is recognized in a CDATA section is "]]>" that ends the CDATA section.
The CharacterData.data attribute holds the text that is contained by the CDATA section. This interface inherits the CharacterData interface through the Text interface.
