You are right, in a posting every word is important, in order
to avoid misunderstandings. So, yes: I am getting the string, not the
number.

question only contains a text node, then I could use innerHTML
equivalently
to innerText/textContent.

thanks for the reference to String.stripTags() - I hadn't realized the
existence of
such a function before.
