I was actually using a DOM parser.  I would obtain one of the nodes in
the
node-set and call getChildNodes() on it and never get its children back.
Shouldn't it be as simple as that?

Now if I read in the entire XML file into a Java method and got that
node
as a result-tree fragment, I could get to the children but not as a
node-set.
