simple question?

[Sharlene_Sallet]

Hello,

I am brand new to xml and parsing with Xerces.

I have an XML String in a Java class that looks like this:

<PLATFORM__CLUSTER_SERVER_DASHBOARD>
<PLATFORM_GET_CLUSTER_ID_FOR_SERVER>
<_data>
<_record>
<CLUSTER_ID><![CDATA[22165]]></CLUSTER_ID>
</_record>
</_data>
</PLATFORM_GET_CLUSTER_ID_FOR_SERVER>
</PLATFORM__CLUSTER_SERVER_DASHBOARD>

All I want to do is pull out the value for CLUSTER_ID, which is "22165" so
I can assign it to a variable.

I have a Xerces parser class and imported

this stuff:

import org.xml.sax.XMLReader;
import org.xml.sax.helpers.XMLReaderFactory;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
import java.io.IOException;
import org.xml.sax.ContentHandler;

can anyone tell me how I can accomplish this?

Thanks in advance,

Sharlene
