Hi perl experts,
Please help with XML issue, am new to XML and XML::LibXML.
Given the following XML slurrped into $string :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><br/>
<scMetrics><br/>
  <objCount>15</objCount><br/>
  <size>1157</size><br/>
  <realsize>1034</realsize><br/>
  <metadatasize>25281</metadatasize><br/>
  <totalSize>26315</totalSize><br/>
</scMetrics><br/>

And given the following code:

  my $parser=XML::LibXML->new;
  my $doc = $parser->parse_string($string);

  foreach my $ten ($doc->findnodes('/scMetrics')){
   print $ten->nodeName."\n";
     foreach my $child ($ten->getChildnodes){
        print "name ".$child->nodeName."\n";
        print "text ".$child->textContent." \n";
        #$sub_hash{$child->nodeName}=$child->textContent;
     }
     print "========================\n";
  }

Produces the following output:

scMetrics
name text
text
name objCount
text 15
name text
text
name size
text 1157
name text
text
name realsize
text 1034
name text
text
name metadatasize
text 25281
name text
text
name totalSize
text 26315
========================

This output appears there is nodes named "text" with empty content.
What am I doing wrong in the XML::LibXML code?
Conon, thanks so much! I stripped the white space from the raw text s/^\s+//g before slurpping into $string abd that worked!
Thanks much, good weekend.
