[Forums] Name cannot begin with the ' ' character, hexadecimal value 0x20. Line 63, position25

Hello,

I am reading contents of an XML/XLIFF file.

Suppose, I have a tag like this

<target>.ABC <x id="1" ctype="lb">DEF <x id="2" ctype="lb"> </target>

Then it's working fine.

But whenever there are inputs like this 

<target>.ABC <x id="1" ctype="lb"> < DEF <x id="2" ctype="lb"> </target>

At the time of loading XML document, it's giving an error.

I want to store "<" symbol before DEF into the database.

Please advice.

Thanks and Regards,
Suraj Borade
