xml.Html(doc : xml, xpath? : str) : xml
Extract the inner portion of xml nodes into a new xml document.
Usage Restrictions
9.02 or later
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| source | doc | XML source document |
| xpath | str | (optional, default:none) Xpath of the element(s) to extract child nodes from |
Result
The result is always a new document and since documents cannot have more than one root, the result is always wrapped in <html><body>...</body></html>, which is the default envelope for emitted xml from dekiscript. I.e. it is automatically stripped when inserted into Deki. When the xpath matches multiple elements, all child nodes of the matched elements are appended to the <html><body> document, but the matched node themselves are omitted.
