[Qt-interest] How to: parse an xml file with tags

[Scott Aron Bloom]

Use QNetworkAccessManager to download it...

Then use QXmlStreamReader to read it...

I was wondering, is QWebElement meant to parse XML documents properly?
Because I tried loading into a QWebPage  a URL that returns XML instead
of HTML (a podcast rss feed) and thought I could use the WebKit class to
load and parse the XML.

The document structure seems to be there, but whenever I call
"toPlainText()" on any of those QWebElements, I get an empty string. Is
that a webkit bug?
