Converting XElement into XmlNode
I know there is no direct method of doing it but still.. Can we convert XElement element into XmlNode . Options like InnerText and InnerXml are XmlNode specific. so,if i want to use these options, what can be done to convert XElement into XmlNode and vice versa. Here is converting from string to XElement to XmlNode and back to XElement. ToString() on XElement is similar to OuterXml on XmlNode. XElement xE = XElement.Parse("<Outer><Inner><Data /></Inner></Outer>"); XmlDocument xD = new XmlDocument(); xD.LoadXml(xE.ToString()); XmlNode xN = xD.FirstChild; XElement xE2 = XElement.Parse(xN
