here n2 is my NodeList, and i just want to see the first child node of my root element
public void ClickMe(View view){
Node rootElement=n2.item(0);
NodeList child=rootElement.getChildNodes();
Node first=child.item(0);
//ClassCastException error is coming whenever i am casting first to Element.
Element nm=(Element)first;
Option q= getOption(nm,first);
Log.i(TAG,"the name is was talking about is : "+ q.getName());
}
this what logcat says
07-31 20:32:38.376: E/AndroidRuntime(2950): Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.harmony.xml.dom.TextImpl cannot be cast to org.w3c.dom.Element
Try it like this....
NodeList LOP = odoc.getElementsByTagName("Your_XML_Top_Element");
Node FPN =LOP.item(0);
try{
if(FPN.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE)
{
Element token = (Element)FPN;
NodeList oNameList1 = token.getElementsByTagName("Your_XML_Sub_Node");
Element firstNameElement = (Element)oNameList1.item(0);
NodeList textNList1 = firstNameElement.getChildNodes();
}
