[jdom-interest] Null Pointer Exception from getTextTrim() method

[Anand, Rajesh]

Folks,

	here is my code snippet....

	Line1 - Element childelem2 = element.getChild("ClosingPrice",
element.getNamespace());
			
	Line 2 -String date[x] =  childelem1.getTextTrim();

	and here is the part of XML I'm trying to read...

	<getIndex:Price> 
	
<getIndex:PriceEffectiveDate>2005-05-10</getIndex:PriceEffectiveDate> 
	<getIndex:ClosingPrice>2.99</getIndex:ClosingPrice> 
	</getIndex:Price>

	So, why is the 2nd line giving me Null Pointer error instead of
returning a value of "2.99"??

	Any helps will be greatly appreciated.
