A parser parses everything you feed it. Some parts of a document might be marked as being "unparsed" character data, but it doesn't work the way you'd think; it just leads to more FAQs. Just don't embed HTML in your XML. Embed well-formed XHTML. Investigate the use of HTML Tidy, which is available at www.w3.org.
