SYNOPSIS

String substring( ElementTree tree, UnicodeFormat uform=LiteralUTF8, Doctype doctype=HTML4Strict )

ARGUMENTS

tree An element from the document body (it may be the document body itself)

uform The method for displaying multibyte Unicode characters. This argument is optional, with a default of LiteralUTF8

doctype The document type declaration to assume for conversion. This need not be the same as the doctype used for the HTMLDocument, if this element tree is part of a HTMLDocument. This argument is optional, with a default of HTML4Strict

DESCRIPTION

Convert a part of the document (or a fragment of HTML unconnected to the document) into String form. This can be used as an easy way of giving HTML source examples:

 p = addParagraph(parent,"An image: ");
 img = addImage(p,ImageData("example.png","an example",Unspecified));
 p2 = addParagraph(parent,"HTML code for the image: "+substring(img));
