Well, that's not surprising. 'h1' in your example contains 3 children - 
text, element, text - in that order. So when you request node->children 
you get first child which is a text node, its content is in 'content' 
field. I don't see a problem here.

It looks wrong to use a node pointer returned from previous reader 
iteration. As I understand it could be reused, and previous node is 
freed when you're done with it. So in your example you store previous 
element pointer which is 'img' and later try to use it to get some text 
(which can't be outside of 'img' scope by the way)? Are you sure 
xmlTextReaderCurrentNode() doesn't return anything for text node?
