Yesterday, I've found all of value in XML are lost HTML format when I rendered my application. At that time, I don't know how to do and how to solve this problem. Because I've put some value into string.xml file as common value and can use in any java file within project.

Here is the sample how I assign into XML file.

view plain print about
1<string name="about">Planet Myanmar Dictionary <br /><small>(Eng-Myanmar Dictionary)<br /><br /><b>Developer</b> : Pyae Phyoe Shein <br /><b>Organization</b> : Planet.com.mm <br /><b>Version</b> : 1.3 <br /><b>Android OS</b> : 2.0 and above</small></string>

When I call this "about" variable name display in my application, HTML format are lost as follow

That's why I've asked my problem in Stackoverflow and some geek answered me to use "CDATA" format before and after of variable like as follow

view plain print about
1<string name="about"><![CDATA[<html>Planet Myanmar Dictionary <br /><small>(Eng-Myanmar Dictionary)<br /><br /><b>Developer</b> : Pyae Phyoe Shein <br /><b>Organization</b> : Planet.com.mm <br /><b>Version</b> : 1.3 <br /><b>Android OS</b> : 2.0 and above</small></html>]]></string>
