I am trying to read to some data in XML format which is CDATA in my windows 8 phone app. Here is a sample of the data:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE HolyQuran [
<!ATTLIST HolyQuran TranslationID CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ATTLIST HolyQuran Writer CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ATTLIST HolyQuran Language CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ATTLIST HolyQuran LanguageIsoCode CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ATTLIST HolyQuran Direction (rtl|ltr) #REQUIRED>
<!ELEMENT HolyQuran (Chapter+)>
<!ATTLIST Chapter ChapterID CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ATTLIST Chapter ChapterName CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ELEMENT Chapter (Verse+)>
<!ATTLIST Verse VerseID CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ELEMENT Verse (#PCDATA)>
]>

I want to get all the CDATA along with the corresponding VerseID. I need to do this in a windows 8 Phone app. Can anyone please show me how to correctly get this CDATA? I am trying Xdocument but I havent had much luck.
Thanks!
haven't had much luck does not tell much about your problems with XDocument, but I think it's still the best way to go:
var xDoc = XDocument.Load("Input.xml");
var items = xDoc.Root
.Element("Chapter")
.Elements("Verse")
.Select(v => new
{
Id = (int)v.Attribute("VerseID"),
Content = (string)v
}).ToList();
items is a list of anonymous type objects with two properties: Id with your VerseID value and Content with the CDATA content.
