CData Error (Java JDOM)

[Elton John]

I'm using JDK 1.4.2 and JDOM 9.

Is there a restriction on what can be put into CDATA sections ? IE is
failing on the registered trademark sign (r in a circle). It might not be IE
but that's all I have here. Is there a restriction on what I can put into
CDATA ?

You can certainly put that character in a CDATA section, but because
you can't use character references in a CDATA section you can only do
it if the encoding you are using includes that character. However,
most encodings (eg latin-1) do include it, so I doubt that's the
problem.
