Tired, Exhausted, searched the web, usenets,forums thorughly but still

This is the issue I have been trying to resolve since today morning :
I have an XHTML document in string form which I parse using Xerces
DOMParser (using an InputSource to read it).
Now I am trying to get to a node for which I have the Xpath, using the
XPathAPI.
So something like this :
Document doc = parser.getDocum ent(); // where parser is an instance
of DOMParser
Node onenode =
XPathAPI.select SingleNode(doc, "html/body",doc.getDo cumentElement() );
I am using doc.getDocument Element() as the namespace node because the
namespace is declared there - <html
xmlns="http://ww.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
The problem : selectSingleNod e is always returning NULL.
I have tried almost everything. I saw somewhere on the groups that
somebody had set the Namespaceaware( boolean) to true for DomFactory but
I am not using DOMFactory. I am using DOMParser and I tried
setNamespaces(b oolean) but it cannot find the method (I wonder why -
when it's a derived class from XMLParser).
Anyways, thats the problem I have been dealing with since today morning
(read as 8 hours).
If you have a solution, please help !
Thanks,
Anupam

If the elements in the XML document are in the default namespace then
your XPath expression needs to a prefix to select/match elements in that
namespace.
See
<http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/34022/fid/616>
although that does not show how to do that with the Xerces API. There is
a Java 1.5 example however using the standardized JAXP way to evaluate
XPath expressions.

Martin's got the right answer. XPath 1.0 doesn't have the concept of
default namespace; if you want to search for a namespaced node your path
must use prefixes and you need to tell the XPath engine how to resolve
those prefixes.
XPath 2.0 has proposed adding default namespace behavior, I believe.

I don't know this XPathAPI class very well. (Are you using Java 1.5?
If so, any reason you're not using XPath from the standard API?)
However, it looks like you're looking for a child of the document
element called "html". Rather, "html" IS the document element. Try
either of the following instead, and see one or both of them work
better.
XPathAPI.select SingleNode(doc, "/html/body",doc.getDo cumentElement() );
XPathAPI.select SingleNode(doc, "html/body",doc);

Can you query from a non-root node using XPathAPI's function
selectNodeList(Node contextNode, java.lang.String str)? I'm trying this
using the XPath expression "//*" and I'm getting nothing back. I know the
node I pass to this function has data in it because I'm inspecting it in the
debugger using Eclipse. The Javadoc doesn't say you can't query from a
non-root node. Thanks.

How do you get the height of the client browser in IE? Both
document.body.clientHeight and document.body.offsetHeight return the
height of the document. If the page is long and there's a vertical
scrollbar, you get the height of the entire document, screwing up any
chance of centering a window in the browser using these values.
Is there a way to get the height of the actual browser window and not
the entire page height?
Thanks.

Hi,
I've read somewhere that try/catch shoudn't be used as an
alternative to if clauses (maybe it was in C++ regi).
However, when using XmlNode.SelectSingleNode(XPath
expression) to get a node, it throws an exception instead
of returning null if the node doesn't excist. I'm a bit
tentative to use a catch statement to handle this as this
is not in my program considered a severe error. Is my
