Whitespace - I'm going slighty mad!

[Michael Xanadu <xa...@googlemail.com>]

I tryed to use Xerces 3 to read a xml file and I'm going slightly mad. I
have no problem to get the first node of my xml file, but xerces always
returns "#text" when I want to get its child node. I think the problem has
something to do with the so-called "whitespace". I tryed everything (dtd,
set features) without sucess. Please help and take a look at my code. I'm
under pressure. :-( (my xml file and dtd are in the attachement)

Regards, Michael
