Hi,
I do not know whether there is already written routines for this task,
but I have written some util functions to help debugging xml values.
It strips html tags and newlines from already constructed xml data.
Adam, what do you think of this? Is it valuable to include in the distribution?

$ cat debugUtil.ur
fun deleteHtml s =
let
val chars = String.length s - 1
fun delete i acc =
if (i > chars)
then acc
else
let
val nextChar = String.sub s i
in
if nextChar = #"<"
then inTag (i+1) acc
else delete (i+1) (acc ^ String.str nextChar)
end
and inTag i acc =
if (i > chars)
then acc
else
let
val nextChar = String.sub s i
in
if nextChar = #">"
then delete (i+1) acc
else inTag (i+1) acc
end
in
delete 0 ""
end
fun deleteChar ch s =
let
val chars = String.length s - 1
fun delete i acc =
if (i > chars)
then acc
else
let
val nextChar = String.sub s i
in
if nextChar = ch
then delete (i+1) acc
else delete (i+1) (acc ^ String.str nextChar)
end
in
delete 0 ""
end
fun xmlToString [ ctx ::: {Unit} ] [ use ::: {Type} ] [ bnd ::: {Type}
] ( arg : xml ctx use bnd ) : string =
deleteChar #"\n" (deleteHtml (show arg))
