Re: [xml] Run-time error during XML parse

[Sriram Chadalavada <swenggsri yahoo com>]

Bill,
   Thanks for the enlightening reply. I have started
using xmllint to pre-validate XML documents that will
be used by my application. The run-time error has been
fixed.

However, I am still not able to correctly parse
sub-nodes of the root.
Code:
1.cur=xmlDocGetRootElement(doc);
2.cur=cur->xmlChildrenNode;
3.while(cur != NULL)
4.{
5.if((!xmlStrcmp(cur->name, "BUCKETS")))
6. {
  
7.key=xmlNodeListGetString(doc,cur->xmlChildrenNode,1);
8.printf("Node content: %s",key);
9.xmlFreeDoc(doc);
10.return cur;
11.  }
12. cur = cur->children (also tried next);
}
return NULL;
        child->name of the root->xmlNodeChildrenNode
is being returned as "text" whereas it should be
"ENTITY". I do not know as yet what to call this error
and could not find anything relevant on the 
archives by typing "erroneous child name". 

              If you could please show me where I can
find the answer, I would be thankful. 

Regards,
Sriram
