Xml Parsing Question

[John Schretz]

Hi I need to parse the following line out of this xml:
<PostagePrice TotalAmount="10.85">

I am able to use the below code to parse out other tags, however i cant figure out how to get the numeric value out of that particular tag
Any help would be appreciated

thanks
john

DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();

				Element element = (Element) node;

				NodeList Status = null;
				Element StatusElement = null;
				String StatusVal = "";

				Status = element.getElementsByTagName("PostagePrice");

John,

 
 Status = element.getElementsByTagName("PostagePrice");   
 // something like  Status.getAttributes().item(0).getNodeValue(); 

Check getAttributes() method for the Node will lead you to the value.

Thanks, that did the trick

Solution below

		DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();
		try {
			parser.parse(new InputSource(new java.io.StringReader(line)));
		} catch (SAXException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		} 

		Document doc = parser.getDocument();

		NodeList nodeList = doc.getElementsByTagName("PostageRateResponse");

		for(int index = 0; index < nodeList.getLength(); index++)
		{
			Node node = nodeList.item(index);

			if (node.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE)
			{
				Element element = (Element) node;

				NodeList Status = null;
				Element StatusElement = null;
				String StatusVal = "";

				Status = element.getElementsByTagName("PostagePrice");

				for(int i = 0; i < Status.getLength(); i++)
				{
					if(Status != null){
						StatusElement = (Element) Status.item(i);
					}
					if(StatusElement != null){

						StatusVal = StatusElement.getAttributes().item(0).getNodeValue();   
						System.out.println(StatusVal);
						postage = StatusVal; 
					}
				}
			}
		}
