Accessing text between two QWebElement objects

I am traversing a DOM using Qt's WebKit classes. Please have a look on the following pseudo HTML:

<br>111<a class="node">AAA</a>
<br>222<a class="node">BBB</a>
...

I can easily find the anchors using findAll(). However I also need to get the text before the elements ("111" and "222"). I tried to use previousSibling() but of course that gives me the <br> element since the "111" and "222" texts are no elements.

I found a function to access text within an element, but how can I access between the <br> and the <a> elements?

Solution

  • It seems it is not possible. The only workaround I could find is getting the plain text of the parent node and parsing the resulting plain text.
