how to retrieve section CDATA from xml file

[Dariusz Tomoñ]

Hi,

I have got xml document with CDATA sections containing special characters
like links to images. All Iwant is to display the content in my div
section.

I tried like this:

protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();

xmlDoc.Load("http://www.e-biznes.pl/out/rss-ebiz-full-html.xml");

XPathNavigator xpathNav = xmlDoc.CreateNavigator();

xpathNav.MoveToRoot();

RecurseNavNodes(xpathNav);

}

public void RecurseNavNodes(XPathNavigator node)

{

//start recursive loop with level 0

RecurseNavNodes(node, 0);

}

public void RecurseNavNodes(XPathNavigator node, int level)

{

if (node.Name == "item")

{

ItemXmlXPathNavigator (node);

}

string s = null;

s = string.Format("{0} <b>Type:</b>{1} <b>Name:</b>{2} <b>Attr:</b", new
string('-', level), node.NodeType, node.Name);

if (node.InnerXml.Length 0 && level>0)

{

s += "</BR>" + node.InnerXml;

}

if (node.HasChildren)

{

node.MoveToFirstChild();

do

{

RecurseNavNodes(node, level + 1);

} while (node.MoveToNext()); node.MoveToParent();

}

}

public void ItemXmlXPathNavigator(XPathNavigator node)

{
if (node.HasChildren)

{

node.MoveToFirstChild();

do

{

if (node.Name == "title")

{

lbl.Text += node.InnerXml + "<BR/><BR/>";

}

if (node.Name == "description")

{
//XmlCDataSection cdatas = node.;

//cdatas.InnerXml = node.InnerXml;

string zawartosc = node.InnerXml;

zawartosc = zawartosc.Replace("&lt;", "<");

zawartosc = zawartosc.Replace("&gt;", ">");

lbl.Text += "<font color='blue'>" + zawartosc + "</font>" + "<BR/><BR/>";

}

} while (node.MoveToNext()); node.MoveToParent();

}

}

But I got escaped characters instead of html tags.

I have got html tags like <img src=.... oraz embadded swfs, so I need to
retrieve CDATA section in other way than normal

node.InnerXml

Can you provide me a snippet of a code.

Thank you in advance.

XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
xmlDoc.Load("http://www.e-biznes.pl/out/rss-ebiz-full-
html.xml");

Regex CDATA = new Regex("<!\\[CDATA\\[ ?(.*?)\\ ?]\\]>",
RegexOptions.Singleline);
StringBuilder output = new StringBuilder();
foreach (XmlNode node in
xmlDoc.GetElementsByTagName("item"))
{
string description =
CDATA.Match(node.InnerXml).Groups[1].Value;
output.AppendFormat("<h3><a href=\"{1}\">{0}</a></
h3>{2}<br/><br/>{3}<br/><br/><hr/>", node["title"].InnerText,
node["link"].InnerText, node["pubDate"].InnerText, description);
}

HTH :)
