How can I parse a response of this type -
From what I understand this is XML but the decode xml block of the web component doesn't work plz help
What do you mean ? Show the output...
Also share your xml as text so that others can try it out / test with it.

<plaintext>Solve for x:
3 x - 7 = 11
Add 7 to both sides:
3 x + (7 - 7) = 7 + 11
7 - 7 = 0:
3 x = 11 + 7
11 + 7 = 18:
3 x = 18
Divide both sides of 3 x = 18 by 3:
(3 x)/3 = 18/3
3/3 = 1:
x = 18/3
The gcd of 18 and 3 is 3, so 18/3 = (3×6)/(3×1) = 3/3×6 = 6:
Answer: |
| x = 6</plaintext>

I thought decode meant that it would convert it to a "normal" format how can I just get the <plaintext> part @TIMAI2 u there ?
not able to replace ">" and "</" with replace all block
it was for appathon and the submittions are closed now 
would be gr8 if the @MIT team could extend it for a few hours but i guess they would not
