.. _functx_has-mixed-content:

========================
functx:has-mixed-content
======================== 

Whether an element has mixed content

Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
The functx:has-mixed-content function returns true if the element has mixed 
content, i.e. both child elements and textual (character data) content other 
than whitespace.

Technically, when a schema is not in use, the spaces and line breaks used to 
pretty-print XML documents do count as text nodes. However, for convenience, 
this function ignores them.
