Why is the XML output is encoded?
It is our effort, to produce an xml file from an html content that
we parse. How can I stop PHP from encoding my html tags into &lts
and $gts?

To explain what we get now and what is desired, I am provided a
color-coded snippets of the xml files. The PHP code is also provided
for your critical eyes.


Thank you for your help in advance.
