I need help! XML Parsing

Question

This is my xml code file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<contato_lista xmlns="includes:net_schema.xml">
     <contato ID="001">
          <nome>Andr�teste</nome>
          <ip>192.168.25.242</ip>
     </contato>
     <contato ID="002">
          <nome>Gustavo</nome>
          <ip>192.168.25.72</ip>
     </contato>
</contato_lista>
I am trying to get the text from the tags <nome> and <ip> from the 2 tags <contato>. And this is the method I am using. I am trying to get the text in the tags <nome> in the array contatos_lista[], everytime I run the program I get empty. Please I need help. I am desperade.
Thanks in advace.
public String[] importaContatos() {
String contatos_lista[] = new String[ 12 ];
contatos_lista[0] = "N�o h� contatos";
Node nodeContato;
NodeList contatoChild;
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
try {
File contatos = new File("D:/userdir/mycodes/NetMessage/contatos.xml");
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
document = builder.parse( contatos );
}catch (SAXParseException spe) {
}catch (ParserConfigurationException e){
}catch(SAXException e){
}catch (IOException e){
Node nodeElement = document.getDocumentElement();
Node nodeChild = nodeElement.getParentNode();
Node nodeContatoLista = nodeChild;
NodeList contatoListaChild = nodeContatoLista.getChildNodes();
//JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null , contatos_lista[0]);
for (int i = 0; i <= contatoListaChild.getLength(); i++){
nodeContato = nodeContatoLista.getFirstChild();
nodeContato = nodeChild.getNextSibling();
contatoChild = nodeContato.getChildNodes();
int count = 0;
for (int y = 0; y < contatoChild.getLength(); y++){
contatos_lista[count] = contatoChild.item(y).getNodeValue();
count++;
return contatos_lista;
}

public String[] importaContatos() {
String contatos_lista[] = new String[ 12 ];
contatos_lista[0] = "N�o h� contatos";
Node nodeContato;
NodeList contatoChild;
DocumentBuilderFactory factory =
ctory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
try {
File contatos = new
tatos = new
File("D:/userdir/mycodes/NetMessage/contatos.xml");
DocumentBuilder builder =
r builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
document = builder.parse( contatos );
}catch (SAXParseException spe) {
}catch (ParserConfigurationException e){
}catch(SAXException e){
}catch (IOException e){
Node nodeElement =
ement = document.getDocumentElement();
Node nodeChild = nodeElement.getParentNode();
Node nodeContatoLista = nodeChild;
NodeList contatoListaChild =
Child = nodeContatoLista.getChildNodes();
//JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null ,
(null , contatos_lista[0]);
for (int i = 0; i <=
0; i <= contatoListaChild.getLength(); i++){
nodeContato =
deContato = nodeContatoLista.getFirstChild();
nodeContato = nodeChild.getNextSibling();
contatoChild =
tatoChild = nodeContato.getChildNodes();
int count = 0;
for (int y = 0; y <
y = 0; y < contatoChild.getLength(); y++){
contatos_lista[count] =
atos_lista[count] =
contatoChild.item(y).getNodeValue();
count++;
return contatos_lista;
}This line appears to be wrong to me
Node nodeChild = nodeElement.getParentNode();
Why are you doing that?
Anyway it would be easier just to do
ement = document.getDocumentElement();
NodeList contatoListaChild = ement.getElementsByTagName("contato");
for (int i = 0; i <= contatoListaChild.getLength(); i++){
  Element contato = contatoListaChild.item(i);
