I have the following XML file:\[code\]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?><!-- Edited by XMLSpy? --><note> <to>Tove</to> <from>Jani</from> <heading>Reminder</heading> <body>Don't forget me this weekend!</body></note>\[/code\]And using the following Javascript/HTML:\[code\]<html> <body> <h1>W3Schools Internal Note</h1> <div> <b>To:</b> <span id="to"></span> <br /> <b>From:</b> <span id="from"></span> <br /> <b>Message:</b> <span id="message"></span> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { // code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); } else { // code for IE6, IE5 xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.open("GET", "note.xml", false); xmlhttp.send(); xmlDoc = xmlhttp.responseXML; document.getElementById("to").innerHTML = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("to")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue; document.getElementById("from").innerHTML = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("from")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue; document.getElementById("message").innerHTML = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue; </script> </body></html>\[/code\]This is working fine, but if one of the values in the XML file has no value such as \[code\]<from></from>\[/code\] then the rest of the values will not return any data.Any ideas how I can detect this and move on, even if there is no value in the node?
