Description brunoais 2017-02-02 09:50:34 UTC 
I want to suggest changing the spec for createCDATASection() method such that a string that contains "]]>" transforms into two <CDATA> sections. For example:

> My blow up ]]> example

Becomes

> My blow up ]]]><![CDATA[]> example

Any ideas against this? I've been trying to find them but I just can't see how this can be something wrong...
