[jdom-interest] Re: Only getting the first element node

[David Parker]

Updated to version beta 5 and still seeing only first element
Is there a problem with setting the list from the root?
The size of the list is 1.

>         org.jdom.Element root = jdomDoc.getRootElement();
>
>         List mycourse = root.getChildren();             //return all children

         java.util.Iterator iter = mycourse .iterator();
         davDebug += "Size of myCourses list: " + mycourse .size();
