[Nokogiri-talk] Nokogiri::XML::SAX::Document and elements with invalid xml contents

[Jeff Hodges]

Could you give an example? I imagine the answer would be checking
specifically to see what tag you're on, and if it's the parent tag of
the text you want, calling inner_html on that, flipping a boolean that
says to the rest of your code "don't worry about this data" until the
end tag event happens for the tag you care about when you flip it
back. Since you've been handed a pile of angle brackets and told it
was XML, you might have get a little dirty.
