[RESOLVED] Traversing XML (Recursion)

I wrote a small bit of code to traverse through all the nodes of a XML document. I am facing an issue with output.
This is my source:

XML Code:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<QUOTE_HEADER>
    <QUOTE_NO>100</QUOTE_NO>
    <QUOTE_LINES>
        <QUOTE_ADTL><ITEM>1</ITEM><DESC>Magician box</DESC></QUOTE_ADTL>
        <QUOTE_FURNITURE><ITEM>001</ITEM><DESC>Electric Chair</DESC></QUOTE_FURNITURE>
    </QUOTE_LINES>
    <DELIVERY_ADDRESS>
    <ADDRESS>100 AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS</ADDRESS>
        <CITY>NEW YORK</CITY>
        <STATE>NEW YORK</STATE>
        <ZIP>10013-1689</ZIP>
    </DELIVERY_ADDRESS>
</QUOTE_HEADER>

This is my code:

c# Code:

using System;
using System.Xml;
 
namespace StripMe
{
    class Class1
    {
        public static int GetNodeTypeCount(XmlNode node, XmlNodeType nodeType)
        {
            // Recursively loop through the given node and return 
            // the number of occurences of a specific nodeType.
            int i = 0;
 
            if (node.NodeType == nodeType)
                i = i + 1;
 
            if (node.HasChildNodes)
                foreach (XmlNode cNode in node.ChildNodes)
                {
                    i = i + GetNodeTypeCount(cNode, nodeType);
                    Console.WriteLine(cNode.ParentNode.Name + "//" +cNode.Name);
                }   
            return i;
        }
 
        [STAThread]
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            try
            {
                XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
                doc.Load(args[0]);
                XmlNodeList nodeList = doc.GetElementsByTagName("*");
                Class1.GetNodeTypeCount(doc.DocumentElement, XmlNodeType.Element);
                Console.ReadLine();
            }
            catch (XmlException xmlEx)        // Handle the XML Exceptions here.         
            {
                Console.WriteLine("{0}", xmlEx.Message);
            }
            catch (Exception ex)              // Handle the Generic Exceptions here.
            {
                Console.WriteLine("{0}", ex.Message);
            }
        }
    }
}

This is my output:

Code:

---

QUOTE_NO//#text
QUOTE_HEADER//QUOTE_NO
ITEM//#text
QUOTE_ADTL//ITEM
DESC//#text
QUOTE_ADTL//DESC
QUOTE_LINES//QUOTE_ADTL
ITEM//#text
QUOTE_FURNITURE//ITEM
DESC//#text
QUOTE_FURNITURE//DESC
QUOTE_LINES//QUOTE_FURNITURE
QUOTE_HEADER//QUOTE_LINES
ADDRESS//#text
DELIVERY_ADDRESS//ADDRESS
CITY//#text
DELIVERY_ADDRESS//CITY
STATE//#text
DELIVERY_ADDRESS//STATE
ZIP//#text
DELIVERY_ADDRESS//ZIP
QUOTE_HEADER//DELIVERY_ADDRESS

---

I would like to get the output without the #text coming up. What do I need to do? Any ideas?

Try replacing with this where you are printing ParentName and Name:

csharp Code:

if(cNode.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Text)
    Console.WriteLine(cNode.ParentNode.Name);
else
    Console.WriteLine(cNode.ParentNode.Name + "//" +cNode.Name);

Harsh,
Thanks for your solution. I changed it to this:

csharp Code:

public static int GetNodeTypeCount(XmlNode node, XmlNodeType nodeType)
        {
            // Recursively loop through the given node and return 
            // the number of occurences of a specific nodeType.
            int i = 0;
 
            if (node.NodeType == nodeType)
                i = i + 1;
 
            if (node.HasChildNodes)
                foreach (XmlNode cNode in node.ChildNodes)
                {
                    i = i + GetNodeTypeCount(cNode, nodeType);
                    if (cNode.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Element)
                        Console.WriteLine(cNode.ParentNode.Name + "//" +cNode.Name);
                }   
            return i;
        }
