I understand that document.getRootElement returns the root but how do I
get access to the two comment nodes?

To get to the root element of the document, you must first use
document.getDocumentElement(). Then you can traverse the children of the
root.

Hi,
Im having trouble treversing all the child nodes from the Document object.
Usually when treversing the child nodes from an Element for example I go:
Node node = element.getFirstChild();
while(node != null) {
// do some processing
node = node.getNextSibling();
}
But when I do this starting from a Document with comments and a root like:
<!-- comment 1 -->
<!-- comment 2 -->
<root/>
the nextSibling() method of the <!-- comment 1 --> node returns null.
The following method of iteraton also dosent work because
nodeList.getLength() returns 1.
NodeList nodeList = document.getChildNodes();
for(int i=0; i<nodeList.getLength(); i++) {
// do some processing
}
Is this whats supposed to happen?
If I print the DOM tree with a identity JAXP transformer the whole tree
comes out so their obviously there Im just not accessing them correctly.
How does it treverse the documents children?
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
From Richard.
