Nokogiri usage

ruby-talk
1

Hi,

In one of my Rails app, I have a content attribute that hosts some html
code. I want to parse this content and replace <img> tags by something
else. I used to do Nokogiri::HTML(content), and then do my parsing, then
return the content.

The problem is that nokogiri injects the doctype and <html><body> tags
which obviously messes up my final html page because of these duplicate
tags.

So how to perform the parsing without having to first initialize the
content with Nokogiri::HTML, or how to not initialize a full html page

Cheers,

···

from my content?

Try Nokogiri::HTML::DocumentFragment.parse(content).
