DOM question

[Timothy Grant]

Forgive my XML newbieness, but I'm puzzled by something.

I have been able to use minidom to read a tree and walk the
nodes and such, but I can't figure out how to access the
textual data in a tag. Given the following:

<tag attribute='test'>This is the text I want</tag>

I can find the  tag, I can read the attribute, but what minidom
or dom functions return the contents of the text?

I thought it would be nodeValue, but that is empty.
