Jagdev ,
Ur XML seems somewhat like.........
<Crime> Crime_Value
<Assault> Assault_Value </Assault>
<Murder> Murder_Value </Murder >
<computer_crime> computer_crime _Value </computer_crime >
<theft>theft_Value </theft >
.
.
.
</Crime>
I guess u r using
(par_node->content) or xmlNodeGetContent(par_node) which gives the
combined string concatenated values of all children of par_node
(xmlNodeGetContent API in Tree Module says ..........
Read the value of a node, this can be either the text carried directly
by this node if it's a TEXT node or the aggregate string of the values
carried by this node child's (TEXT and ENTITY_REF). Entity references
are substituted
Remember always that TEXT content of a Xml Node is also a Child Node .
Use xmlNodeListGetString() API..........
So to get only "Crime_Value" content pass the 1st child of par_node to
xmlNodeListGetString() API like this
xmlChar* pszCrimeContent = xmlNodeListGetString(doc, par_node->children
, 1)
Remember also to free the returned string using xmlFree() as it is
allocated on heap via xmlNodeListGetString()
xmlChar* pszCrimeContent = NULL;
pszCrimeContent = xmlNodeListGetString(ptrXMLDoc , par_node->children ,
1 );
if (pszCrimeContent)
{
printf("Value of <Crime> = %s", (const char*)
pszCrimeContent);
xmlFree(pszCrimeContent);
pszCrimeContent = NULL;
}
Regds,
Lav

Dear all
I am trying to build a parent-child array from an xml hierarchy.
So the array is {child value: parent value} eg {assault: crime},
{murder:crime}, {theft:crime} etc
I get the parent of a current node using par_node=cur_node->parent
but instead of giving me the name of the first element, its giving me
all of the children as well.
What its giving me:
:0.000000: 0},{assault:
crime
murder
computer_crime
theft
drug_trafficking
sexual_assault
assault
torture
kidnapping
arson
gang_activity
criminal
name
etc
What I would like:
{assault:crime}
Is there anyway I can just retrieve the first name value ie crime?
Thank you for your help.
