Xml parsing with Java

Question

Hi ..!
I am having a small problem friends if anybody of you can just help me resolving this .
I am quiet new to working with parsing XML with SAX and Dom java parsers .
Problem is when we want to extract the Element name ,Attribute Name or Attribute Value it is quiet simple in Java to do so .
But supposing i want to extract the value between the tags of an element how can we do so either their is a simple method that i have missed or their is a tedious procedure that i am ignorant of.
eg- <Node1> this is my name <Node1>
Java source output -this is my name.
Thanx to you people for co-operating
Take care

Answer 1

in SAX u can do like this
     boolean nodeflag=false;
     public void startElement(String uri,String localName, String qName,Attributes attributes)throws SAXException
          if(qName.equals("Node1"))
               nodeflag=true;
     public void endElement (String uri, String localName, String qName)throws SAXException
          if(qName.equals("Node1"))
               nodeflag=false;
     public void characters(char[] ch, int start,int length)throws SAXException
          String s=new String(ch,start,length);
          if(nodeflag==true)
               if(!s.trim().equals(""))
                    System.out.println(s.trim());
     }here in characters method u can work with data
