Maybe not exactly what you need but how about: Element.getText()
"Returns the text value of this element without recursing through child elements. This method iterates through all Text, CDATA and Entity nodes that this element contains and appends the text values together." or ... Element.getStringValue() "Returns the XPath string-value of this node. The behaviour of this method is defined in the XPath specification. This method returns the string-value of all the contained Text, CDATA, Entity and Element nodes all appended together."
