Read HTML Tags in XML Node

Hi all,

I have an XML as following. I'm trying to read it with the following code:

DataSet cars = new DataSet();
cars.ReadXml("http://localhost/cars/newcars.xml");

All the nodes are getting properly populated into the Dataset created EXCEPT the "description" node. I can't find a way to make ReadXML (or similar method) to get the content of the description node and skip the HTML tags. I would like just treat that portion as pure text, ignoring the html content.

My question would be: How can I read an XML file which some of the nodes have HTML tags inserted? How could I avoid that the program treats the HTML tags as XML nodes>

thanks,

Juan

You could try use the CDATA tag. Then you only need to change the xmlfile and not your code

Code:

---

<cars>
 <car>
  <color>red</color>
  <model>ford</model>
  <description>
  <![CDATA[
    <p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><span class="textnorm" title="">Super</br>fast</br></span></p><h2 xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><span class="textnorm" title="">Reasons to buy</span></h2><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Just because</p>
    ]]><!--end CDATA tag-->
