Hello Carter,
maybe this helps:

Sorry, if this was suggested before. I did not follow the whole thread.

Betreff: Re: XML Output to Web
Thanks, Bruno.
I've been using XML::Writer to generate the XML and that works well.
Problem is I need to
display the generated XML code in a browser. To display the code
you generally need to
escape the special characters, like the '> < &' (>, < &) which
is where I have the problem.
XML::Writer creates well formed XML, which is great, but I need to
create XML for displaying
in a browser.
So, instead of generating this:
<project name="foobar" default="xyz" basedir="." />
I need this:
<project name="foobar" default="xyz" basedir="." />
I've looked at most of the modules you've listed but I haven't yet
found one that generates
escaped XML.
Guess I'll keep looking or write the XML myself.
Thanks again.
Carter.
