Please excuse my ignorance.  I am pretty inexperienced with
XML and Xerces-c.  I am working on a project that uses the SAX parser to
extract data from XML files.  My problem is that I do not know how to
retrieve the value of an element.  My terminology may be wrong so I will
illustrate with an example.

 

<TEXT selectorcode="STBBA" league="BBA" category="STAT">

<STORYNUMBER>9000-NON-EVENT-MESSAGE-X</STORYNUMBER>

<SELECTORCODE>STBBA</SELECTORCODE>

 

            In the above code, I can determine the element names such as
TEXT, STORYNUMBER, etc.  I can also determine the values of attributes
such as the value "BBA" of the league attribute.  I am determining both
of these from the startElement function of the DocumentHandler.  What I
cannot determine is the data contained within the tags.  An example of
this is STBBA between the SELECTORCODE tags.  I am sure there must be a
simple way to access this information but after a rather exhaustive
search I cannot seem to find it.  Could someone please point me in the
right direction?
