to read a child node content i use :

MYDATA = xhr.responseXML.getElementsByTagName("MenuItem")

[INDEX].getElementsByTagName("PageContent")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue;

sometimes when the childnode data contains an HTML tag (eg b or br tags, because they have the <>), i have problems since they are counted like xml tags (like childnodes).

my question is how to get the entire data from a child node even if it contains other html tags

exp : MenuItem MenuText menu b text b MenuText MenuItem

would return "menu" !!! but i want it to return :"menu text"

thank you guys, and happy new year
