AttributeNodeCount and ChildCount

G'day

I getting strange results from Sabletron which I don't yet
understand.
I'm happy to work around them if the results are correct.

I have a xml with 4 attributes in the root node and three
children

	status = SDOM_getChildNodeCount(situation, node,
&childCount) ;

	status = SDOM_getAttributeNodeCount(situation, node,
&attributeCount) ;

       status = SDOM_getChildNodeCount(situation, node,

// returns 7 i'm expecting 3

       status = SDOM_getAttributeNodeCount(situation, node,
&attributeCount)
// returns 6, I'm expecting 4

Any ideas on how to 3 for childCount and 4 for attribute
count?


Thanks in advance

The extra nodes are likely whitespace text nodes. Check type
of nodes and filter 
them if necessary. I'm not sure what could be the extra
attributes, maybe NS 
declarations. Can you list their names to see what is going
on?

We would need to see a relevant part of your code and the
input XML to be able 
to tell you more.

I'm now disregarding the attribute counts and now stepping
through
each child and testing for the type.

I'd like to know how to get a count of just elements and
I've got it
working as it is.

Thanks
