What is the difference between CDATA and PCDATA?..

Answer / Yogesh Prakash

CDATA (Character Data) section is used to enclose large chunks of text that may contain special characters such as angle brackets, which would otherwise be interpreted as XML markup. On the other hand, PCDATA (Parsed Character Data) is the normal content within an XML element, which can include both character data and XML markup.
