HI
I want to display the contents of a big XML inside a text area so that the user would be able to edit it. But the XML consists of characters such as & " which are interpreted by as & and " respectively.
But if this going to be the case the backend systems could not read them. I used <xmp>, but it is already deprecated and further it would not work inside text area. Could somebody help me with this.
in short : & should be displayed as & itself and not & inside the textarea.

<plaintext> is a legitimate html tag, or maybe I don't understand your comment.
No wonder I never heard of it. It was "obsoleted" in HTML 2.0 and listed as deprecated in 3.0 and 3.2. Only some browsers support it but IE and Firefox do not from what I read.
I don't know if rite2 ever got an answer, but if you fetch any text file,
including xml,with an xhtmlHTTPReques t 'GET', and set the value of the textarea to the response text returned, the literal text will be displayed in the text area- &s; <'s, and all.

Deprecated is not the same as obsolete, although I believe I understand what you are saying. Even before the tag was deprecated it had no pratical use. I think it was mostly used by mischief makers with great results on unsuspecting html enabled forums, guestbooks, and such.
IE and FireFox do support it, but might not if the DTD is set properly.

Hello, I'm relatively new to C and have gone through more than 4 books

Reading some old clc posts, I've beginning to realize that these books

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
