Hi, first the code I gave you is for creating new xml content, if you're
reading from a file, you don't need it. If you were already able to retreive
your text but it was only the formating part that was missing, you only need
to put the CDATA section in your XML. CDATA are read the same way as text
node.
I'll explain anyway what my code do and why like you asked.
These are constant, it's only best pratice to replace all plain text in your
code by constant:
PRODUCTTAG = "product"
PRODUCTUIDTAG = "productUID"
I used this example to show the difference between creating a normal text
node by doing so :
Text productUIDText = xml.createTextNode(*this*.productUID);
and creating a CDATA text node by doing this:
Text productDescriptionText =
xml.createCDATASection(this.productDescription);
You can read both of these node by doing so :
this.productUID =
objectElement.getElementsByTagName("productUID").item(0).getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
this.productDescription =
objectElement.getElementsByTagName("productDescription").item(0).getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
objectElement would be one product.
For you, object element would be your page element. But it should'nt be a
problem if you already retrived all content element to do
contents.item(0).getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
HAHA oh I forgot to put my constant in this one ! LOL
I hope it's fnally clearer :)
