> <?xml version='1.0'?>
> <!DOCTYPE TEST [
> <!ELEMENT TEST (CDATA)>

> <TEST><![CDATA[blahblah]]></TEST>

> Warning: CDATA section not allowed here

> As I'm new to this (XML), it must be something I'm doing wrong. The XML

> PS. Just tried <!ELEMENT TEST {#PCDATA)> and removing the DOCTYPE section
