[jdom-interest] CDATA Extraction Question

Greet the sun all,

I have a question concerning CDATA.  If I have a tag like the following:

<foo>
<![CDATA[<BR>Hello]]>
</foo>

how would I extract the CDATA material?  There is no method on Element
that allows me to extract the data as a CDATA object.  If I use
getText(), then I get the CDATA tag information and have to strip the
CDATA material out before it is usable as text or to pass into the CDATA
constructor parameter.

Thoughts?
