The problem I encouter is a parsererror. When I tracked down the location of the error, it's caused by a CData

I have done this with Java, but not with LS. Feel free to drop me an email if you would like to have the Java code I used.

I would second Ranjit. Use Ls2J and you become platform independent. The DOM Parser in Java is CDATA aware.
