Hey Lev,

I'm forwarding your query to the Xerces-C guys - maybe there is
something different with how Xerces is implementing the DOM3 API?

Cheers, jas.

Subject: getting element text?
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I'm addmitedly new to DOM, but I'm a bit confused by what should seem
to work based on the W3 DOM tutorial.

if I have a Xerces::DOMElement, and I want to get the value of that
element, one would assume that getNodeValue would get me the text
string within the element tags:

<Element>Some Text</Element>

So if I have a DOMNode where getNodeType() returns 1, and getNodeName
returns 'Element', shouldn't getNodeValue return 'Some Text'?  I'm
consistently getting emtpy strings for any Element that I use the
getNodeValue method on.  getTextContent gives me the text, however I
would think that that's the wrong way to go about things.


Any help would be appreciated!

thanks,
-lev
