No this is absolutely wrong :-)  The XHTML is embedded with VuXML... 
the whole document is one XML document.  Some elements are in the VuXML 
namespace, while others are in the XHTML namespace.  Markup cannot 
exist in a CDATA section--- if it is in a CDATA section, it is *not* 
markup but *text content*.

I saw your earlier message about XML::Node, but since I am not familiar 
with that (or XML::Parser), I did not understand what problem you were 
having.  Could you try to describe it differently?
