Problem XML encryption and Decryption

[Ramanathan Palaniappan]

Hi,

I have an application which sends an encrypted XML document (only a single element is encrypted) to another process over SSL. I am able to encrypt, decrypt and recover data as long as I am within the same application but when I trasnmit the file over SSL, problems arise.

The other end decrypts the document and prints it properly.  But when I try to recover the decrypted element's value using  "getElementsbyTagName.item(0).getFirstChild().getValue()" the value returned is an empty string. But indeed, I could see the value being printed out at the receiver end if I print the entire docment by serializing it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ram
