Re: [dom4j-dev] getNodeValue not getting complete node value

Title: Message

This sounds very wierd. It seems like you might have multiple text nodes to me. e.g. is there a newline between the "60" and the "113392" text in your XML document that you're parsing? That could explain why both node.valueOf( "." ) and node.getStringValue() are concatenating the text values whereas node.valueOf( "text()" ) is returning the just text of the first (text) node.   Could you send the XML document and a snippet of code you're using to actually get hold of "_currentNode" so we can try it out?
