I have generated a class for serialization using XSD.exe. One of my xml
elements always contains html data but the serializer does not pick up this
content. If the element contains only text it picks it up as expected.

I assume it is because the serializer thinks <html> is an element that is
not in the class so it ignores it. However how can I tell the serializer to
get all the content of an element no matter what it contains?

An example of the element and the data it contains is:

<DataContent>
<html><head><title/></head><body><p>Test</p></body></html>
</DataContent>

XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(l_NewsMLDocument.GetType());
Stream stream = new FileStream("c:\\DirkTemp\\" + l_fiTemp.Name,
FileMode.Create,
FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None);
serializer.Serialize(stream, l_NewsMLDocument);
stream.Close();
 
By default, the XmlSerializer class will ignore unknown elements. You
need to add an event handler to the UnknownNode event of the
XmlSerializer class in order to programmatically handle these elements.
