How do I get values from a resultset using JDOM?

Question

I am very new to this and I dont have the slightest idea how to retrive values from a result and create a XML tree using JDOM
Can someone please help me?
I have the JDOM Parser installed on my machine.
This is my code so far:
import org.jdom.input.*;
import org.jdom.*;
import java.sql.*;
import java.io.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
public class Display extends HttpServlet {
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest rq, HttpServletResponse rs) throws IOException, ServletException
rs.setContentType("text/html");
PrintWriter out = rs.getWriter();
try {
     Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
     Connection listcars_con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:Cars");
     Statement listcars_statement = listcars_con.createStatement();
     ResultSet listcars_rs = listcars_statement.executeQuery("Select CarNr FROM cars");
//Load the appropriate driver, establish a connection and create a statement which is used to execute the query that returns all the
//columns from the cars table
Document doc = new Document(new Element("rootElement"));
          listcars_statement.close();
          listcars_con.close();
//close the connections
catch (ClassNotFoundException cnfe)
System.err.println(cnfe);
} catch (SQLException sqlex) {
System.err.println(sqlex);
} catch (Exception er) {
er.printStackTrace();
} //closing bracket for doPost method
} //closing bracket for class definition

ResultSet object has nothing to do with XML... so the only way to it
is just read each row/column in your resultset and then create
XML record based on structure of your resultset - annoying job...
Also you can try to use tool developed by Oracle which based
on SQL select statement parses resultset into XML...
