Hi, Im making use of Apache Xerces C. Im interested in getting the attribute names and values in the order in which they are described in XML.   The method getAttributes( ) of DOM_Node class returns a DOM_NamedNodeMap class, I retirve the attribute names and values using the item( ) method of this class.   However the attributes get arrange in ascending order, what I want is that the attributes to remain arranged in order in which they are in the XML.   Is it possible to do it?   eg: <person name="ppp" age="34">   The attributes get arranged in ascending order, so if I write this code its a pseudo code: person.getAttributes( ).item( 0 ).getNodeName()                    ----> would give me "age" rather than "name", because internally things get arranged into ascending order on namednodemap.   I want is that person.getAttributes( ).item( 0 ).getNodeName()           ---->  should give me "name".   I hope im clear.   Prasanna Bhale Net Team Inc. 2101, Arena Blvd. Suite 100 Sacramento CA - 95834 Main #:  916.566.1120 Fax #:  916.566.1188
