bioinformatics system that allows the user to interact directly with XML
schemas. My code loads a schema and creates a JDOM tree just as if it
were a normal XML document. However, here’s the problem: I’m trying to
get the include child elements from the root element but always the list I’m
returned is empty. Checking using the NetBeans debugger shows that the
JDOM Document object matches the underlying schema.</SPAN></FONT></P>
