I am trying to use a sax parser with a custom DefaultHandler, but the strange thing is that the startElement () method in dHandler is never called. endDocument () works as it should, but prints
Total elements:0
while my xml file has 11 status elements.
even if I put total ++ outside the if statement, so it will increment every time startElement () is called, it still says 0 elements.
Please help me with this, thanks
if(e.getSource()==open)

JFileChooser chooseFile=new JFileChooser();
int returnVal = chooseFile.showOpenDialog(wnd);
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
File file = chooseFile.getSelectedFile();
parser.parse(new InputSource(new FileInputStream(file)));
DocumentImpl document = (DocumentImpl)parser.getDocument();
Node root = document.getLastChild();
AllElements allelements = new AllElements();
NodeIteratorImpl iterator =(NodeIteratorImpl)document.createNodeIterator(root,
NodeFilter.SHOW_ELEMENT, (NodeFilter)allelements, true);
Node n;
states.removeAll(states);
while ((n = iterator.nextNode()) != null)
{
if(n.getNodeName().equals("state"))
{
NamedNodeMap attrs = n.getAttributes();
NodeList children=n.getChildNodes();
State newState=new State(attrs.item(0).getNodeValue(),
attrs.item(1).getNodeValue(),attrs.item(2).getNodeValue(),attrs.item(3).getNodeValue(),children.item(0).getTextContent());
states.add(newState);
}
}
Collections.sort(states,new StateComparator());
mod.setRowCount(states.size());
mod.setColumnCount(5);
