How could I reach a specific tag while using DOM?-CodePudding

Please show me how to reach "autovehicul" as result, while language is english and its sibling is car. Thank you. If language english is selected and car is selected, in a web service, my answer must be autovehicul, if romanian language exists.

How can you parse that xml to reach an answer like that. I have an issue with targeting a specific node. Condition - Nodelist - Iterate - Condition - Node - get Tag. Then, i have to establish the node of autovehicul content, and get the required result.

<Word>
    <equivalent>
        <language>english</language>
        <word-translate>car</word-translate>
    </equivalent>

    <equivalent>
        <language>romanian</language>
        <word-translate>autovehicul</word-translate>
    </equivalent>
</Word>

You can try something like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<p id="demo"></p>

<script>
var parser, xmlDoc;
var text = "<Word> <equivalent><language>english</language><word-translate>car</word-translate></equivalent>"  
"<equivalent><language>romanian</language><word-translate>autovehicul</word-translate></equivalent></Word>";

parser = new DOMParser();
xmlDoc = parser.parseFromString(text,"text/xml");

document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML =
xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("word-translate")[1].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
</script>

</body>
</html>

Or you can try XPath for an easier access.
