[sync] XMLOutput Causing Funambol Crash

Karsten,

It looks like the changes made to XMLOutput.php in the latest CVS are
causing Funambol for Outlook 3.0.15 to crash when updating data FROM Horde.

Specifically, it seems to be very angry about this code at line 568:

if($this->isWBXML()) {
$this->_output->characters($content);
} else {
$this->_output->characters('<![CDATA[' . $content . ']]>');
}

When I reverted this particular section of code to just:
$this->_output->characters($content);

Funambol immediately worked again and completed the sync successfully. My
guess is that Funambol is getting stuck in the CDATA portion and hating the
results. I assume the change was made to accommodate one of the other
devices or clients, so I imagine it's desirable to keep it in a similar
form.

Let me know if there's any additional log info you need to troubleshoot
this.
