Hi All,

I need to extract contents of CDATA section in XML using Javascript. The XML looks like this

Code:

<batsmen order="6">
  <fullname>S.Gosy</fullname> 
  <shortname>S.Gosy</shortname> 
  <batsmanid>4343</batsmanid> 
  <runs>8</runs> 
  <balls>10</balls> 
  <fours>2</fours> 
  <sixes>0</sixes> 
  <minutes /> 
- <howout>
- <![CDATA[ c  ]]> 
  </howout>
  <bowler>Langy</bowler> 
  <fielder>Shamy</fielder> 
  </batsmen>

Am at my wits end trying to extract the value inside CDATA which is "c". There seem to be spaces before and after "c".
Please help.

Regards,
Shanker
