Again, the goal of this section is not to give a comprehensive overview of the DOM APIs. There are a large number
of resources available on the Internet that provide information about XML in general, or DOM in particular.
To be able to compile the code in Listing 11-8, the following import statements had to be added.
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.Node;
import org.w3c.dom.NodeList;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
Before we go into detail about the code, we show the output of this example in Figure 11-6 .
