[dom4j-user] Problem getting node data.

[Grove, Jeff]

I can get data from a Node that contains multiple elements but I can’t get data from a node that contains a single element. Am I missing some basic concept here?   /**  * Sample Test Document (test.xml) located in C:\  *  * <DOCUMENT>  *   <TestA>  *     <test>1</test>  *     <test>2</test>  *     <test>3</test>  *   </TestA>  * </DOCUMENT>  *  */   import java.net.MalformedURLException; import java.net.URL;   import  org.dom4j.*; import org.dom4j.io.SAXReader;   public class XMLTest {    private static Document document;       public static void main(String[] args)    {       /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////       // Read Document (works, reads document)       /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////       try       {             URL filelocation = new URL("file:///C:/test.xml");             SAXReader reader = new SAXReader();             document = reader.read(filelocation);                       }       catch (DocumentException de)       {             System.out.println("Error: " + de);       }       catch (MalformedURLException mue)       {             System.out.println("Error: " + mue);       }                         /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////       // get a node from the document (works, gets node & data)       /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////       Node nodeA = document.selectSingleNode("//TestA");       System.out.println("Node A:\n  " + nodeA.asXML());                   // get data from node       String dataA = nodeA.valueOf("test[2]");       System.out.println("Data test[2]: " + dataA);                               /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////       // get data from node (FAILS TO FIND DATA IN NODE, WHY?)       /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////       Node node2 = document.selectSingleNode("//TestA/test[2]");       System.out.println("Node 2:\n  " + node2.asXML());         String data2 = node2.valueOf("test");       System.out.println("Data test: " + data2);    } }
