Hello! I don't know how you want to process exactly.... ,but if you want white space characters are removed, use the following command ....I
parser.setIncludeIgnorableWhitespace (false) ; It make let the parser don't process white space for element which it don't declare with #pcdata of subelement in dtd , If element have subelement that declares with #pcdata, white space characters must be processed.... I hope that it is helpful comment for you....
