I posted this in php.general, but then I found this newsgroup. Maybe it's more suitable here (?) $dom = new DOMDocument(); $root = $dom->createElement("test"); $dom->appendChild($root); $node = $dom->createElement("foo", "which entities <i>does</i> it escape & which doesn't it?"); $root->appendChild($node); echo $dom->saveXML(); The result will be: <?xml version="1.0"?> <test><foo>which entities &lt;i&gt;does&lt;/i&gt; it escape </foo></test> It stops at the &, which I think is strange. It escapes the < to &lt; and > to &gt;, but not & to &amp;. It would be better if it escaped none or all entites that "can do harm". Or what do you think? regards, Victor
