Re: what can i do if i want to include "<" or ">" in xml document.

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Escape them to "&lt;" and "&gt;" (excluding the surrounding quotes.

">" is ususally safe even unescaped in most contexts.

Sometimes it becomes necessary to escape the quotes and the apostrophe
characters -- accordingly -- with "&quot;" and "&apos;"

Another character to escape almost always is the ampersand character
itself -- this is escaped as "&amp;"
