Question

i am trying to parse an xml element using XMLDocument (DItem >> Title)
below is my code but somehow i am not getting hold of it…. any help?

XmlDocument xmldoc = new XmlDocument();
            XmlNamespaceManager xmlns = new XmlNamespaceManager(xdoc.NameTable);
            xmlns.AddNamespace("DItems", "http://namespace.xsd");
            xmldoc.Load(url); 

        var title = xmldoc.SelectNodes("content", xmlns);
        foreach (XmlNode node in title)
        {
            string title = node.Attributes["Title"].Value;
            //this.ddlTitle.Items.Add(new ListItem(title));
        }

here is my XML:

    <?xml version='1.0'?>
<root xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
  <title type="text">title</title>
  <entry>
    <content type="application/xml">

Answer 1

var xmldoc = new XmlDocument();
var xmlns = new XmlNamespaceManager(xmldoc.NameTable);
xmlns.AddNamespace("DItems", "http://www.namespace.xsd");
xmldoc.Load(url);

var titleNodes = xmldoc.SelectNodes("//DItems:DItem/@Title", xmlns);

var result = titleNodes.Cast<XmlAttribute>().Select(a => a.Value).ToList();

Output (list of objects):

my title1
my title2
my title3
