Special Characters

Some browsers return escaped text while others return unescaped text. Below is an example of HTML code, how it's displayed in IE, and how it's rendered in the DOM Explorer.

 

 

Test Studio uses an HTML-based parser when reading the content of elements. It affects special characters and substitutes them for their respective HTML encoding (reference). Test Studio extracts the uninterpreted string from the HTML page. What you see in the browser is an interpretation of the raw HTML code rendered to the page.
