Hi, Evan

Like Mike said, there is nothing "special" about : xmlwise (the special entities you should pay attention to are quot, amp, gt, lt and apos). The element you posted is read by my IE without a glitch. As a rule of thumb, I always protect uncontrolled and arbitray text under a CDATA element.
