Hi,

How to save this xml inside a string:
I'm getting errors because of the quotations

        str xml = "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
            <note>
            <to>Tove</to>
            <from>Jani</from>
            <heading>Reminder</heading>
            <body>Don't do it!</body>
            </note>";

Hi @..,

You should use Escape character before "

as below

str myText = "He said, \"Hello\" and left.";

String value: He said, "Hello" and left.

Thanks,

Because the string contains multiple double quotes and only a single one, a better approach will be wrapping the string in single quotes and escape only the single quote / apostrophe: '<?xml version="1.0" ... Don\'t ...'.
