Most XML parsers come with some sample programs. Have you tried looking at those? The DOM provides a structured view of your document, but you have to walk through that view yourself to obtain the data. There are some tools which can help simplify this process -- the getElementsByNodeNames() method, the NodeIterator/TreeWalker added in DOM Level 3, which can help you jump to the points you're interested in. To retrieve the contents of an element, even when those contents are just text, you must examine the children of that element. That should get you started in the right direction... ______________________________________ Joe Kesselman / IBM Research
