XML data cannot be retrieved

Hi

I am trying to connect to a remote Host.

I get a response but then it throws a exception like

Exception in xmlParseString::org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Element type
"VerifyOutput" must be followed by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>"

My XML output string is

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><VerifyOutput ITC='ABC' PRN ='2100001' CURRENCY = 'INR'PMTDATE ='2012-06-04'AMT ='1.0'STATUS='FAILED' > </VerifyOutput>

Can anyone help me knowing why and what case can this happen?

If there is no child / text content for VerifyOutput node, then it shall be either look like below.
<VerifyOutput></VerifyOutput> or <VerifyOutput/>

You get the ParseException when your XML is not valid. Change the node and check again.

But i get attributes right? Even then it shows the same exception??

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><VerifyOutput ITC='ABC' PRN ='2100001' CURRENCY = 'INR'PMTDATE ='2012-06-04'AMT ='1.0'STATUS='FAILED' > </VerifyOutput>

This is incorrect you mean??

Hi

Can i know how can i retrieve such kind of a data from the tags without this exception??

The data must be in the same format.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><VerifyOutput ITC='ABC' PRN ='2100001' CURRENCY = 'INR'PMTDATE ='2012-06-04'AMT ='1.0'STATUS='FAILED' > </VerifyOutput>

I missed to see the VerifyOutput start tag. Why are you using single quote for attribute values? Replace it with double quotes.

No, either type of quote is acceptable to delimit attribute values. The problem here is that there are attributes which are run together without spaces separating them:
