A common issue seems to be adding javascript to CDATA and the browser throwing a javascript error. To ensure the javascript works use the following code when adding CDATA:

<?php
/**
 * Append Caracter Data to a node and check for a javascript node
 *
 * @param DOMElement $appendToNode
 * @param string $text
 */
function appendCdata($appendToNode, $text)
{
    if (
strtolower($appendToNode->nodeName) == 'script') {  // Javascript hack
       
$cm = $appendToNode->ownerDocument->createTextNode("\n//");
       
$ct = $appendToNode->ownerDocument->createCDATASection("\n" . $text . "\n//");
       
$appendToNode->appendChild($cm);
       
$appendToNode->appendChild($ct);
    } else { 
// Normal CDATA node
       
$ct = $appendToNode->ownerDocument->createCDATASection($text);
       
$appendToNode->appendChild($ct);
    }
}
?>
The result should be:

<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
function someJsText() {
   document.write('Some js with <a href="#">HTML</a> content');
}
//]]></script>

Here's a function that will create a CDATA-section around a string coming from SimpleXML.

<?php
function sxml_cdata($path, $string){
 
$dom = dom_import_simplexml($path);
 
$cdata = $dom->ownerDocument->createCDATASection($string);
 
$dom->appendChild($cdata);
}
?>
