Re: [Xsltforms-support] CDATA in subforms

[Alain C. <ala...@ag...>]

Tim,

I have now committed CDATA support:

  * script content is "escaped" with CDATA for "text/javascript" and
    "text/turtle"
  * @cdata-section-elements in submission is supported for all major
    browsers

Thank you for your feedback!
