Re: [xmljs-users] Escaping " ' " in .getText();

[David J. <dj...@ya...>]

Hi!

I'm not sure I'm seeing what you are describing. I just tried a quick derivation of the tagpath
example application with some CDATA and an apostrophy and it seemed to work. Please see the
attached gzipped example. You can load it by replacing domTagPathExample.html in:

xml_for_script-3.0/sampleApplications/classicDom/domSampleApplicationTagPath

with the domTagPathExample.html I'm including with this message.

When I load that example and hit the button, it comes back with what I would expect, which is the
full string. Do you see something different?

When you say it doesn't work, what exactly do you mean? Does the string get cut off or truncated
at the position of the apostrophy when you call getText()? Or does the tagpath not work at all?

Would it be possible to put together a quick recreation and send that to me. If you can, I can
probably figure out what's going on pretty quick and get you going...

Thanks

David
