Hi Jun, Could it be that the price is set by JavaScript at the moment of display in your browser? In that case the price is actually in some datasource (xml) or a separate .js file. This is sometimes done when pages need to be displayed in several browses like iPhone's and regular browsers.
Did you try using an XPath expression? in your case it would be //span@product-price-amount. There are some good firefox addons to test XPaths on HTML. I use XPather.

I would assume this text Node has value "$27.00", but when I called getNodeValue() the return value is empty. I forced this child node to be Text node and called getWholeText() but still get empty return value. Does anyone know what's going on? It seems that the text "$27.00" seems to be missing from the whole hierarchy. Jun
