Document.createCDATASection() - Web APIs 编辑

createCDATASection() creates a new CDATA section node, and returns it.

Syntax

var CDATASectionNode = document.createCDATASection(data);

• CDATASectionNode is a CDATA Section node.
• data is a string containing the data to be added to the CDATA Section.

Example

var docu = new DOMParser().parseFromString('<xml></xml>', 'application/xml')

var cdata = docu.createCDATASection('Some <CDATA> data & then some');

docu.getElementsByTagName('xml')[0].appendChild(cdata);

alert(new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(docu));
// Displays: <xml><![CDATA[Some <CDATA> data & then some]]></xml>

Notes

• This will only work with XML, not HTML documents (as HTML documents do not support CDATA sections); attempting it on an HTML document will throw NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR.
• Will throw a NS_ERROR_DOM_INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR exception if one tries to submit the closing CDATA sequence ("]]>") as part of the data, so unescaped user-provided data cannot be safely used without with this method getting this exception (createTextNode() can often be used in its place).
