1) The first child of your properties node is almost certainly a Text node
containing the whitespace between the <properties> tag and the <propone>
tag. Check its nodeType, and if it that's the case you'll use this node's
getNextSibling() operation to advance to the next child -- which should be
the propone element you were looking for.

2) getChildNodes lists only the immediate children of a node -- but it will
include the Text nodes which represent white space between elements. That's
almost certainly what you're seeing.
