Hi,

I have an XML file that I'm trying to parse with Linq2XML. One of the nodes contains a bit of html, that I cannot retrieve.

The XML resembles to:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<root>
<image><img src="/Images/m1cznk4a6fh7.jpg"  /></image>
<contentType>Banner</contentType>
</root>

The code is:

XDocument document = XDocument.Parse(content.XML);
XElement imageElement = document.Descendants("image").SingleOrDefault();
image = imageElement.Value; // Doesn't get the content, while if I specify .Descendants("contentType") it works

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance
