Using xml in my c# application

Hi,

I have this:

"<Node Id=" + "3" + " ParentId=" + "1" + ">" + "\r\n" +

I use this line above to display it in a textbox.
Only I need to display the " too
(I don't know how you call " in english)
So it has to be something like this:

""3"" but with this I get an error.

How can i display the "-sing in my textbox.

I hope I have explain this right. My English isn't very well.

" instead of the " to escape it in XML

<Node Id="3" + ParentId="1">

With this I get an error:
"<Node Id=" + ""3"" <================

so when you write it to the textbox, either do a .Replace(""", "\"") or HTMLEncode(myXML)

This works for me:

"<Node Id=" + doubleQuote + 3 + doubleQuote etc...

Thanks.

Please review this: http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/XML/xml_escape_chars.htm

Note the escape characters. To put these in XML, you have to escape them as specified and then un-escape them when you use them.
