Retrieve nodes with same name in a XML file

[andreazaffaroni]

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<test>
         <one>
                   <two>A</two>
                  <three>B</three>
        </one>
        <one>
                  <two>C</two>
                  <three>D</three>
         </one>
</test>

Hi Community,

Can you please help me to retrieve data "A" and "C" from the correspondent childNodes "two" when the parentNode has the same name. See the example above.

Thanks,

Andrea

Please try this out, I have tested

var xmlString = "<test><one><two>A</two><three>B</three></one><one><two>C</two><three>D</three></one></test>";
var xmlDoc = new XMLDocument2();
xmlDoc.parseXML( xmlString ); 
node = xmlDoc.getFirstNode( '//test/one/two' );
j=1;
while( node != null ) {
      var value = xmlDoc.getNodeText( '//test/one[' + j + ']/two');
       gs.info( 'Value: ' + value);
       j++;
       node = xmlDoc.getNextNode( node );
}

Hi

your code is correct, i don't manage to reproduce it with my xml which is actually more complicated than the example I provided above.

Thanks.

you can try this kind of sample test on "www.w3schools.com", they have explained very well

w3schools

adding one link here, it has one example to get the child node value.
