Java Video Tutorial 44

After I made my XML Video Tutorial, you asked me to show you how to parse XML with Java. So, that is what I'm doing in this tutorial.

I wasn't sure how much to cover, because I could literally create a 5 part series on this topic. I decided to cover the basics in the video and provide another example in the code below.

If you want to see more, tell me and I'll cover more on parsing XML with Java.

I always aim to teach as if those watching are intelligent. I'm sure anyone that can watch videos like I make are quit smart :) You asked what my job was in another post. I run a bunch of shopping carts. I made them plus I deal with suppliers and pretty much everything else that's involved. I also make custom solutions for business owners which have been coming in the form of Android apps for the most part over the past 2 years.

I'm just about the only guy that makes fast tutorials. I'm glad you like them :)

You're very welcome :) Thank you for watching my tutorials

[derekbanas]

Thank you. You could dig through the XML file itself with say regular expressions. It is a file like any other

[derekbanas]

XML was designed to transport and store data. Because data needs to be specific the tags are customizable

HTML was designed to display that data. Because the ways to display data is limited, the number of tags is limited

I haven't yet cover JEE related topics. I held a vote and tablet / android / game tutorials won. I'll cover JEE ASAP

[derekbanas]

I'm glad you liked it. If you guys want more on parsing xml tell me and I'll do it

[derekbanas]

Thank you for the request. I added it to the list

Awesome tutorial. Browsing through other websites always confused me. I had to watch this couple times to grasp the concept. But straight and to the point!!

[derekbanas]

That's why I have people to talk to customers :) I'm not a big believer that anyone is ever too old to do anything.

XSL stands for EXtensible Stylesheet Language I talk about it in my XML tutorials

[derekbanas]

Thank you :) I'm very happy to be able to help

[derekbanas]

I'll see what I can do. Thank you for the request :)

Hate YouTube, because I cant get him more subscribers than he actually has. Keep up the good work Derek

Wow I have been researching Java and XML parsing for 2+ weeks and this is the most helpful thing I have found to date. I have a challenging Java/XML parsing problem I'm working on right now! Would love any input you could provide just search for my question on stack overflow! the question title is "Parsing XML with varying element names and child attributes using java".

If you're getting an error saying that you don't have DTD file, grab DTD file from XML Video Tutorial 4.
