Hi,
xml.text(t) is safer than directly accessing t.dt[1].
Note: you may need to strip some XML tags from that content.
If the element is not straight-up data but has nested elements, then this will
return the full xml representation instead:
<title>A short title</title> => ‘A short title'
<title><A short title></title> => ‘<A short title>'
<title><A <b>short</b> title></title> => '<title><A <b>short</b>
title></title>'
Best wishes,
Taco
