CDATA tag in xml

Does anyone know if CDATA tag is supported for values. For example can XI do the following;

<vendor-name><![CDATA[MOON FREIGHT LINES, INC.]]></vendor-name>

The vendor name value is "MOON FREIGHT LINES, INC." which is included in the CDATA tag. Can XI parse correctly and give me the correct value? We don't have a system in place yet and i can't test it out.

Thanks.
