XmlGetInnerXml Function

Action

Returns the inner XML representation of the passed node/document handle. Ensure that the string buffer is large enough to hold the XML. If you pass a document handle you get the inner XML representation of the whole document. If you pass a node handle, you will get the inner representation of the whole node (with all child nodes). Inner represenation means that the node tag itself will not be contained in the buffer.
