Edit to your answers:
I am not using NSXMLParser (thats the reason I make my own parser)
Found some suggestions with:
- (NSString *)stringByDecodingXMLEntities;
but dont know how to implement. I always get
> YourController may not respond to '-stringByDecodingXMLEntities" <

Answer 1

Ok, i solved it with that:
NSMutableString* resultString;
- (void)parser:(NSXMLParser *)parser foundCharacters:(NSString *)s {
resultString = [[NSMutableString alloc] init];
[resultString appendString:s];
}
- (NSString*)convertEntiesInString:(NSString*)s {
if(s == nil) {
NSLog(#"ERROR : Parameter string is nil");
}
NSString* xmlStr = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"<d>%#</d>", s];
NSData *data = [xmlStr dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding allowLossyConversion:YES];
NSXMLParser* xmlParse = [[NSXMLParser alloc] initWithData:data];
[xmlParse setDelegate:self];
[xmlParse parse];
NSString* returnStr = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"%#",resultString];
return returnStr;
}
call: myConvertedString = [self convertEntiesInString:myOriginalString];

Answer 2

use
(void)parser:(NSXMLParser *)parser foundCDATA:(NSData *)CDATABlock
method instead of
(void)parser:(NSXMLParser *)parser foundCharacters:(NSString *)string
thats it

Answer 3

you could try a regex
replace <!\[CDATA\[(.*)\]\]> with $1

Answer 4

If you already have the String in String format with the you can remove it like so:
//Declare what you wish to remove
NSString * suffixTorRemove = #"<![CDATA[";
NSString * prefixToRemove = #"]]>";
//Now create a new string which uses your existing string and removes the declared occurrences above
NSString * newString = [yourString stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:suffixTorRemove withString:#""];
//Now the first part has changed, time to remove the second part
NSString * newString2 = [newString stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:prefixTorRemove withString:#""];
Quick and simple :-)
