How to parse xml (kXML)

Question

I have some problems when I try to parse xml with the kXML parser. My xml doc looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <dsGreenRoom>
- <Rooms>
- <RoomsInfo>
<ID>1</ID>
<Name>Rum 101</Name>
<Type>Dubbelrum</Type>
<NumberOfBeds>2</NumberOfBeds>
<Rate>980,00</Rate>
<Currency>SEK</Currency>
<Description>Ett genomtrevligt rum</Description>
</RoomsInfo>
- <RoomsInfo>
<ID>2</ID>
<Name>Mellanrummet</Name>
<Type>Enkelrum</Type>
<NumberOfBeds>1</NumberOfBeds>
<Rate>650,00</Rate>
<Currency>SEK</Currency>
<Description>Ett litet tr?ngt rum i mitten</Description>
</RoomsInfo>
- <RoomsInfo>
<ID>3</ID>
<Name>Rum 102</Name>
<Type>Flerb?ddsrum</Type>
<NumberOfBeds>3</NumberOfBeds>
<Rate>1250,00</Rate>
<Currency>SEK</Currency>
<Description>Ett ?nnu trevligare rum</Description>
</RoomsInfo>
</Rooms>
</dsGreenRoom>
And my code looks like this:
KXmlParser parser = new KXmlParser();
               parser.setInput(is, null);
               Document doc = new Document();
               doc.parse(parser);          
               int child_count = root.getChildCount();
               System.out.println("child = " + child_count + "\n");
               for (int i=0; i < child_count; i++) {
          if (root.getType(i) == Node.ELEMENT) {
               Element kid = root.getElement(i);
                    System.out.println("kid = " + kid.getName());
               int babies = kid.getChildCount();
               System.out.println("babies = " + babies);
               for (int j=0; j < babies; j++) {
                    if (kid.getType(j) == Node.ELEMENT) {
                         Element room = kid.getElement(j);
                         System.out.println("room.getType() = " + room.getType(j));
                    if (room.getName().equals("ID")) {
          System.out.println("elName.getName() = " + room.getName());
          System.out.println("elName.geText() = " + room.getText(j));
          else if (room.getName().equals("Name")) {
          System.out.println("elName.getName() = " + room.getName());
          System.out.println("elName.geText() = " + room.getText(j));
               } // end for(int j...)
          } // end if (root.getType(i)
          } //for (int i...)
The problem is that I don't know how to get the values out of the tags:
<ID>1</ID>
<Name>Rum 101</Name>
<Type>Dubbelrum</Type>
<NumberOfBeds>2</NumberOfBeds>
<Rate>980,00</Rate>
<Currency>SEK</Currency>
<Description>Ett genomtrevligt rum</Description>
It's no problem to get the value from the firsts i.e. <ID> but I don't know how to get the value from <Name> ... <Description>. I have looked att examples but I don't understand how to do this. Can someone please help me =)

Answer 1

okay, sorry, I only read the half of your problem ;-)
You can read the content using the getText(0) method. the 0 indicates the number of the children which you want to get. That is always a 0 because you have always just one text-children in your text-tags. The content is again a children of type text!
