Okay here is what I did...don't know if this is right or not. for(DOMNode * child = root->getFirstChild(); child != 0; child = child->getNextSibling()) { if(XMLString::compareString(child->getNodeName(), XMLString::transcode("Entries")) == 0) {//have to do this to get to the Entries element for(DOMNode * child2 = child->getFirstChild(); child2 != 0; child2 = child2->getNextSibling()) { for(DOMNode * child3 = child2->getFirstChild(); child3 != 0; child3 = child3->getNextSibling()) { if(XMLString::compareString(child->getNodeName(), XMLString::transcode("Table")) == 0) {//have to do this to get to the Table element for(DOMNode * child4 = child3->getFirstChild(); child4 != 0; child4 = child4->getNextSibling()) { for(DOMNode * child5 = child4->getFirstChild(); child5 != 0; child5 = child5->getNextSibling()) { //here I have the data that I want to store, //but I am inside the loop //so I thought I needed all the information //first b/f storing into my struct. //write the data to a file here } } } else { //here I have the data that I want to store, but I am inside the loop //so I thought I needed all the information first b/f storing into // my struct. //write the data to a file here } } } } }
Hope this helps... -----Original Message----- From: Jesse Pelton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 13, 2004 3:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: storing data from XML file into data structure I'd consider using SAX rather than DOM for this, but it should be straightforward to accomplish what you want with either. I think you need to be specific about why you can't. A code fragment might help. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jones, Brian O.
