Preserving anchor tags in BeautifulSoup

[graham23s]

Hi :)

Here is maybe a better example: https://www.thesite.com/api.php?getProjectsToAction=1

That URL contains xml content, when i get this part:

<taskBody>This is a &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.test.com/&quot;&gt;test&lt;/a&gt; using html tags.</taskBody>

Via Python using BeautifulSoup, the entire string including the ahref is not showing in the console as: This is a <a href="https://www.test.com/">test</a> using html tags. instead it shows as This is a test using html tags.

if i use get_text() it strips out all html tags (so i read somewhere) so it shouldn't strip the html do you think? :)

thank you for the help!
