Break it up

[php]

my $start = "<" . "![CDATA[";
my $end ="]]" . ">";
$newText = iwpt_dcr_value('Area.TextArea');
#$newText =~ s|\n|
|g;
$textArea = $start.$newText.$end;

{iw_value name='$textArea'/}
[/php]

I would do something like below....

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <heroBanners>

<banner> <image><iw_value name='hero_banner.image'/></image> <displayDuration><iw_value name='hero_banner.display_duration'/></displayDuration> <dealInfo> <title1 x="<iw_value name='hero_banner.position_x'/>" y="<iw_value name='hero_banner.position_y'/>" color="<iw_value name='hero_banner.title_color'/>"><iw_value name='hero_banner.title'/></title1> <title2 x="<iw_value name='hero_banner.title_position_x'/>" y="<iw_value name='hero_banner.title_position_y'/>" color="<iw_value name='hero_banner.title_color_2'/>"><iw_value name='hero_banner.title2'/></title2> <connector x="<iw_value name='hero_banner.connector_position_x'/>" y="<iw_value name='hero_banner.connector_position_y'/>" color="<iw_value name='hero_banner.connector_color'/>"><iw_value name='hero_banner.connector'/></connector> <rate color="<iw_value name='hero_banner.rate_color'/>"><iw_value name='hero_banner.rate'/></rate> </dealInfo> <cta x="<iw_value name='hero_banner.cta_position_x'/>" y="<iw_value name='hero_banner.cta_position_y'/>"> <text><iw_value name='hero_banner.link_text'/></text> <ctaURL><iw_value name='hero_banner.link_url'/></ctaURL> <ctaTarget><iw_value name='hero_banner.cta_target'/></ctaTarget> </cta> <video x="<iw_value name='hero_banner.video_position_x'/>"> <thumb><iw_value name='hero_banner.thumbnail'/></thumb> <file><iw_value name='hero_banner.video'/></file> </video> <imageInfo x="<iw_value name='hero_banner.image_info_x'/>" y="<iw_value name='hero_banner.image_info_y'/>"> <name color="<iw_value name='hero_banner.package_color'/>"><iw_value name='hero_banner.package_name'/></name> <description color="<iw_value name='hero_banner.desc_color'/>"><iw_value name='hero_banner.ship_name'/></description> </imageInfo> </banner>

Thanks ACheethayil.
Please wrap your code in PHP tags and repost.

Thanks Nipper. The perl complier has an issue interpreting the literals "<" and ">" when I use your suggestion

[PHP]my $start = "<" . "![CDATA[";
my $end ="]]" . ">";[/PHP]

Any tips for getting round this?

Perl compiler has nothing to do to it. Attach your template, chances are that CDATA Fragments you are trying to print make PT's XML malformed

windy

IscBoris - below is my tpl....

[PHP]

my $start = "<" . "![CDATA[";
iwpt_output("$start");

 

my $end = "]]" . ">";
iwpt_output("$end");

[/PHP]

FYI

The code below works when I replace < with open and > with close

[PHP]

my $start = "open" . "![CDATA[";
iwpt_output("$start");

 

my $end = "]]" . "close";
iwpt_output("$end");
[/PHP]

Bracket your iwperl Tags with CDATA. Otherwise, Parser still expects that the whole Perl Block is well-formed. Like that:[php] #your perl code 
[/php]Note that you can write a PT in the "non-XML" Format, just discard iw_pt Tag completely. In this case it may no longer be well-formed, etc
Better yet, write it all in Perl

nipper

You are missing the point. What are you trying to wrap in CDATA ?

Do not put CDATA in the TPL, it will be stripped out.

If you want to wrap BLAH in a CDATA then

iwpt_output($start);

iwpt_output("BLAH");

iwpt_output($end);

all within a Perl tag

windy

Thanks ISCBoris, Nipper. Got what I need.

nipper

ALso cheange line #2 to this

[php]

[/php]

and get rid of the last line

[php]

[/php]

It makes TPLs simplier to use.

iwpt_output("BLAH");

iwpt_output($end);

Nipper - I need to wrap

In CDATA bu I also need to print the CDATA in the output file. Thanks, got what I need.

You are missing the point...

I do not think so. Windy is using template in XML Format. Therefore, it must be well formed.

No matter how you slice it, <iwperl> blah-blah < blah-blah </iwperl> is malformed.
Bracketing perl Tag body in the CDATA will fix that. Within the body you can now output anything,
CDATA Fragments including

Which is why I suggested 2 posts later to not use XML style TPLs.

Thanks everyone.
