I don't know how your java looks, so I can't provide you with a specific solution (you can google that on your own), but in your case if you want to retrieve all of the eventful nodes you'll probably want an xpath pattern along the lines of //eventful or if you want only the first one you can specify it like this //eventful[1], afterwards you process it according to the xpath implementation of your choice... — Ceiling Gecko
