toplevel.XML.toString()

The short version: If the XML node is a simple text node, the text of the node is returned. Otherwise the entire node is returned as a String. To always return the entire node, use XML.toXMLString().

The long version: check XML.toString() on the livedocs.

Also, if your xml consists of a single empty node, toString will return an empty string.

Examples:
<mynode type="mytype" />
<mynode type="mytype"></mynode>

Sometimes makes me want to scream.
