RE: [Webunitproj-users] how to retreive inner text from WebTag?

[Doron <dg...@sh...>]

Hi,

	Lets keep this simple. The "inner HTML" is basically everything inside
the HTML tag. This means that if there is more than just plain text, it
will be the actual HTML inside that tag. This is as far as we should go
with this because that is basically how the browsers behave as well.

	See further comments below -->
