Hi all...

I'm currently developing a Lazarus application which need to read an XML file. In order to do such a task, FPC has provided DOM unit (dom.pp). But, it seems that dom.pp is unable to read XML element's (text) value. It succesfully read element's name (through NodeName property) and attributes (name and value) though. Getting element's name (through NodeValue property) always return an empty string.

What did I do wrong? Or am I missing something about the dom.pp usage? Here are the codes I used...

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
  doc: TXMLDocument;
begin
  ReadXMLFile(doc, 'sample.xml');

  // this returns correct first attribute's name
  Memo1.Lines.Add(doc.DocumentElement.FirstChild.Attributes.Item[0].NodeName);
  // this returns correct first attribute's value
  Memo1.Lines.Add(doc.DocumentElement.FirstChild.Attributes.Item[0].NodeValue);
  // this returns correct first element's name
  Memo1.Lines.Add(doc.DocumentElement.FirstChild.FirstChild.NodeName);
  // this returns nothing !!!
  Memo1.Lines.Add(doc.DocumentElement.FirstChild.FirstChild.NodeValue);
end;

I really appreciate any kind of helps. I thank you in advance.

Regards,
