I don't like this challenge. It has at least three (!) unstated constraints on the input:
the content can not be an empty string
the tag name can not be an empty string
tags itself can not be content in all cases
To make clear what I mean, let me show you how the outputs should look like according to the challenge rules.
Empty content:
input:
<a></a>
output:
So an empty line instead of None.
Empty tag name:
input:
<>abc</>
output:
abc
So abc and instead of None.
Tags as content:
input:
<a>...</a>...</a>
output:
......</a>...
So two lines instead of one. In the first line the first </a> is interpreted as closing tag. In the second line the first </a> is interpreted as part of the content and the second as closing tag.
Please repair this challenge.
