XML content

This syntax element is the default value element supported by the XML parser. Use content to represent character data (including whitespace) that is part of the element content. There might be many content elements as children of a single element, in which case they are separated by other syntax element types such as nested elements or attributes.

When content is written to a message, occurrences of ampersand (&), less than (<), greater than (>), double quote ("), and apostrophe (') are replaced by the predefined XML entities &amp;, &lt;, &gt;, &quot;, and &apos;.

The pcdata element is also supported for backward compatibility.
