Subject: XPATH Issue

Hi

I have a very strange problem and I have spend a whole day trying to figure what 

is wrong. 


I  have a XPATH expression, and if I evaluate from a XML File on disk it  works. 

If I evaluate from a DOM Object from a HTTP Source, it doesn't  work. Both the 
documents are exactly same. 


XML Document 
SUCCESS </RetrieveResult></RetrieveResponse></s:Body></s:Envelope>


// Document from File

                // Parse the XML as a W3C document.
                DocumentBuilder builder =
                    DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder();
                Document document = builder.parse(new 
File("C:\\Users\\smirxj0\\Documents\\Java\\GPN.xml"));
      

// Alternatively Document  from HTTP 
              
              InputStream isr = httpConn.getInputStream();
              Document document = builder.parse(isr);

// If I print this Document, I have the same output as the XML file


// XPATH Expression

                XPath xpath = XPathFactory.newInstance().newXPath();
                expression = "//RetrieveResponse/RetrieveResult/StatusType";
                String statusString = (String)
                    xpath.evaluate(expression, document, 
XPathConstants.STRING);      

                System.out.println("String is: " + statusString);

Please let me know where am I going wrong?

Is it a XPATH issue?
