Not sure if i understand that code example although i think<br />
<br />
<br />
&gt;&gt;if (eachItem.getNodeValue().t<wbr />rim().leng<wbr />th&gt;0) {<br />
<br />
<br />
should be<br />
<br />
if (eachItem.getNodeValue().t<wbr />rim().leng<wbr />th()&gt;0) {<br />
<br />
You may want to add the blank nodes to a List so you know which ones to avoid<br />

>>if (eachItem.getNodeValue().trim().length>0) {


should be

if (eachItem.getNodeValue().trim().length()>0) {

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
