the "content" attribute contains the content of an element, using the
default encoding.

digging a little more, it looks as if you can use the "serialize" method

somewhere inside libxml2, I suppose. looking again, the functions seem to be
available as "SaveTo" and "SaveFileTo" and "SaveFileEnc" methods on the
