Feature Request: Support for mixed content

Afaik the normal xml is totally valid.

<div>
<strong>Hello</strong> U8XMLParser
</div>

But in this case I have no idea how to get the inner xml.

  • InnerText is empty.
  • AsRawXml returns everything including the div
  • Looping over XmlNodes returns only the strong node, but not a text node or so.

Thank you for the report.

I did not consider nodes that have both nodes and text in their child elements.
The parser implementation needs to be corrected.

Great work btw. As I said in the other issue we are working on a MJML port and this library gives us a 20% performance speed. OR would give us...

Btw: Do you also support comments?

@SebastianStehle
The parser skips comments, so you can't get any information in it.
But you can parse it by yourself from the string XmlObject.AsRawString() or XmlNode.AsRawString() methods return.

I have special "raw" nodes and for these raw nodes I just need to print the output directly. Something like

<mj-raw>
  <!-- Comment -->
  <hr /> 
  Foobar
</mj-raw>

If I can somehow get the inner content it works fine for me.

Try out the following code.

XmlNode mj_raw = ...;  // <mj-raw> node
RawString str = mj_raw.AsRawString();
Console.WriteLine(str);

The output is

<mj-raw>
  <!-- Comment -->
  <hr /> 
  Foobar
</mj-raw>

Is this what you want ?

If you want to get the content of mj-raw node, you should slice the RawString.

Awesome :)
