Answer 1

There are some characters in XML that must not appear in their literal form in an XML document, except when used as markup delimiters or within a comment, a processing instruction, or a CDATA section.
List of characters and their corresponding entity or the numeric reference to replace :

Original Character    XML entity replacement      XML numeric replacement

      "                     "                       "   
      <                     <                         <   
      >                     >                         >
      &                     &                        &
      '                     '                       '   

you must replace above character in XML before you parse it.

You may use CDATA Section for text that is not markup constitutes the character data of the document
