Hello, I am working with a localization tool Wordforge Editor. I am trying to keep the tags inside a text of a xliff file without changing the xml special characters. For example, here is a source string and a target string of a xliff file. <source xml:lang="en-us"> *Texts before inline tag<bpt id="1">texts inside inline tag</bpt> Texts after inline tag*</source> <target"> *Texts before inline tag<bpt id="1">texts inside inline tag</bpt> Texts after inline tag*</target> The source and target string can be shown in the localization tool and user translates the English target to another language. Here in the target, the text *"<bpt id="1">texts inside inline text</bpt>"*has to be kept as it is. It can not be changed or distorted. But when I save the text in the xliff file, it can not keep the original tag. Rather it escapes the special character of xml tag "<" and ">" to *"<"* and *">" * respectively. As a result, the string is saved in the file as <target>Texts before inline tag *<bpt id="1"> texts inside inline tag </bpt>* Texts after inline tag <target>* *It supposed to be saved in the file like this : * *<target"> *Texts before inline tag<bpt id="1">texts inside inline tag</bpt> Texts after inline tag*</target> * *Can you please tell me how can I prevent xml special characters*("<" and ">")* from being replaced with character entities (*"<"* and *">"*) while saving in the file. Is there any function or technique in lxml library to handle this? *-- * Thank you, Aditi.
