Hi,
Im trying to get the value of an XML node, I have the following xml
document.
<root xmlns:dt="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:datatypes">
<title>aaaaaaaaaaaa</title>
<date>19/05/2002 11:34:17</date>
<description>sfsdfsdf</description>
<category>1</category>
</root>
I want to get the value of <title> in this case aaaaaaaaaaa im using the
following java code
String sOut;
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc = db.parse(inStream);
// get the root element
Element eRoot = doc.getDocumentElement();
// get the children
NodeList nList = eRoot.getChildNodes();
try {
sOut = nList.item(0).getNodeName() + " : " +
nList.item(0).getNodeValue();
} catch (NullPointerException npe) {
sOut = "Unable to get node data " + npe;
}
The node name is being correctly returned as title but the node value is
being returned as null. I think i read in the docs somewhere that the node
value will return null if the node is an element ?
Can anyone help this is driving me mad : )
Nic
