    It is perfectly valid for an XML element to contain XML like the following:

    <record><record>test</record></record>

    If this is not what you need, please clarify further in your question. As a last resort you may consider using CData Elements.

    <record>
    <![CDATA[<someotherbadlyformedxml>data<br></someotherbadlyformedxml>]]>
</record>

    But there really should be no reason to do so if all of your data is valid XML.
