Hiya, I'm writing an app that let's my client upload images, the image html code is added to an XML file. Take a look at the <image> element below: <item Code="e1022">
    <code>e1022</code>
    <image><![CDATA[<img src="uploads/image2.jpg" alt="Homepage Image" width="124" height="70" />]]></image>
    <name>Blue Ski Trousers</name>
    <price>8.99</price>
</item> Now, whenever PHP writes this to the XML files, it turns the < and > into &lt; and &gt; . which means it does not display on the webpage. How can I prevent this from happening ? Many thanks, Matt
