Subject: [Nokogiri-talk] nokogiri 1.3.3 osx: Nokogiri::XML::Element broken?
Message-ID: <8be6656c0908140415w216ead46g4c2301b2202f7420@mail.gmail.com>

i just came across a strange problem with nokogiri. below is a sample code:

# testing nokogiri

require 'rubygems'
require 'nokogiri'

xml='<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, <note n="1">consectetur
adipisicing elit</note>, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et
dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, <note n="2">quis nostrud
exercitation</note> ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo
consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit
esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat
cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim
id est laborum.</p>'

doc=Nokogiri::XML("<x>#{xml}</x>")
note=doc.search("note")
note.each do |n|
  p = Nokogiri::XML::Node.new("a",doc)
  p.content ="test" # here the problem occurs! also affected: inner_html !
  n.before(p)
end

puts doc
