Well spotted!!! scary though:Scared:....makes you think how careful you need to be..... a very good tip...and also as other geeks have previously advised - and very true - go with your gut instinct
OH MY GOD!! You clever chick :hug: I am definately not even considering doing it. I just want to find out what he is up to. Thanks for posting that! xxx
This is what I thought the email was about! This happened to my son when he was selling his car on the net. He got an email from some guy saying he was willing to pay some exorbitant price, well above the asking price and all he asked was that my son return $700 of the money to this guy. My son did some investigating and it turns out these scammers pay large sums of money that does not clear into your account and want you to pay the $700 before the money clears... You know what worries me? People repeat actions only when they get results... so is this working for these scammers??!!
Yes I agree. I had something similar like this happen to me the other day. Very similar wording, and services asked for. I also had one for my pony that I was selling, again similar wording etc...asking me to send her abroad and give my address details so they could send me a cheque etc......they hadn't even been to view her! I wouldn't trust this one bit so steer well clear!....I just sent a reply saying sorry I am fully booked that day....and sorry she has been sold....haven't heard a thing since.
i think 1. they are not English 2. i have had chines men ask me as they wife's to be aren't meant to do that sort of thing or something this has happened 5 times so that is not strange. 3. i have travel d all over England and Scotland they have paid all expenses so that's not strange ether. i would get more info from them and take it from there.
I read your thread when you put it up but i had an email today that made me think of it. It was from an Indian person, i assume, because the name was Patel, and they said they had received my business card and wanted hair and make-up done and what make-up did i use. I thought this strange because, firstly, i do have a room within a hairdressers but i don't do it myself and secondly, i haven't given my email address out to anyone so where did they get it from?
how these things work is usually, they dangle a nice carrot ( some business for you ) then you make arrangements, then you go to the airport, then you get a call saying that they cant pay for your flight without your id etc, and they tell you to give them your details and maybe an amount of money to pay so you can board a plane or make a reervation or somethin, and hey presto, you will be 50 quid down sitting in an airport looking like a dope ! beware ! tell them you require all costs paid to your account in advance including all fees, and that you will have an assistant travelling with you, and watch them suddenly lose interest in you !
yep I thought they would be after your bank account details too. Get their address ( under pretence of getting prices for taxis etc ) and then google them. Or find their number through yellow pages and see if it matches what they give you. My we are a suspicious lot......
I have emailed him again and asked for the address so that I can book them in my book. Surprising...no reply! x
I am registered with BTER for the Bowen technique & I received an email from some one stating that they had a model coming over to the uk & she wanted Bowen whilst she was here, they said she would need to pay me before she came as she didnt have funds available. They wanted to post me a cheque for a specific amount & wanted me to pay them back the difference!!! The next day I received an email from BTER with a copy of this exact email explaining it was a scam & that the money that they send you never clears but in the mean time you have sent them a Q which they cash...I emailed the person back straight away advising I was on to them & for them to never contact me again. A caution note though I have a hotmail email address as well as my business address & have just had this stolen by a company....they are now sending all of my contacts emails as if they are from me & my whole address book has gone so I have lost my full contact list!!!
Hi This email to me sounds really dodgy not sure what it is to be honest. I really would,nt take the risk but by asking for a contact number in order to speak directly to this person is a fab idea, and yep it will probably scare the bloke away, which again is very strange a man asking. It could well be a money scam like already mentioned or you could find yourself in alot of trouble. I would stick to who and what you know to be honest get as much more info from this person as you possibly can,,,,, Geee thinking about it its quite frightning ask who the reffered freind was too. Good Luck and Best Wishes.

Americans rebounded from a weak holiday season and stepped up spending on retail goods in January, an encouraging sign for the strengthening economy.
The Commerce Department says retail sales rose at a seasonally adjusted 0.4 percent last month.
That's better than December's downwardly revised flat reading. And when excluding autos and gasoline station sales, retail spending jumped 0.6 percent — the best showing in three months.
[dmc-related-post-wp numitems="3" title="Related stories"]Consumers spent less on cars, the report showed, even though automakers have previously reported higher sales in January.
That suggests dealers offered discounts in order to boost sales.
Sales at gasoline stations rose 1.4 percent, the most in 10 months. Gas prices have risen steadily in recent months.

Michael Sam will face a daunting set of challenges that most rookies don't have to deal with when making the already formidable jump from college to the NFL.
The US college football Southeastern Conference's co-defensive player of the year is about to find out if America's most popular sport, rooted in machismo and entrenched in locker room hijinks, is ready for its first openly gay player.
First, he'll have to find a team willing to put up with the media circus that will surround him. Then, he'll have to find acceptance like he did at Missouri, where his sexuality was a non-issue during a 12-2 season.
Only now, he'll face opponents and their fans who know he's gay. He might even face cheap shots and teammates hesitant to shower alongside him or undress in his presence.
While several teams and coaches said Monday that Sam's sexual orientation wouldn't affect his draft status, former NFL punter Chris Kluwe, who contends his championing of gay rights led to his release from the Minnesota Vikings last year, wasn't so sure.
"The majority of players will be supportive of Michael Sam or just won't care," Kluwe said. "You'll have isolated guys here and there who might try to make a fuss about it, but players by and large are very much, 'Hey, we're here to do a job, we're here to go out and play football.'
"In terms of the coaching/front office side, I think there's where issues are going to arise because they are going to look at this like, 'Hey, is this going to cause a distraction for the team?' And by distraction, they mean, 'We're not really OK with having a gay player on our team, we can't come out and say that, so we're going to use the word distraction,"' Kluwe added. "And unfortunately, those are the people who determine if you're employed or not."
John Elway has a unique perspective running the Broncos' front office now after a Hall of Fame playing career, and he said Monday he'd have no problem drafting Sam.
"We will evaluate Michael just like any other draft prospect: on the basis of his ability, character and NFL potential. His announcement will have no effect on how we see him as a football player," Elway said.
"Having spent 16 years in an NFL locker room, the bottom line is that it's about treating others with respect and earning that respect. By all indications, it appears Michael has done just that throughout his football career."
Several coaches said if a player is accountable and a winner, being gay is a non-issue.
"If anybody can come in and help us win games and be successful - black, white, yellow, straight, gay - I don't think it matters," said new Green Bay quarterbacks coach Alex Van Pelt.
Before Sam revealed his sexual orientation, the pass-rusher was projected as a mid-round draft pick.
Kluwe said reports that Sam's draft stock could drop because he revealed his sexual orientation "basically could have been lifted from any American sporting paper in the 1940s when Jackie Robinson was about to enter Major League Baseball. It's like we've been here before. Why do we have to keep doing the same thing?"
Sam will likely face even more scrutiny from opponents' fans than Chargers linebacker Manti Te'o did after getting fooled by a hoax involving a fake girlfriend while at Notre Dame.
What will help Sam is landing on a team with strong veteran leadership, something that was lacking in Miami, where tackle Jonathan Martin walked away at midseason, alleging guard Richie Incognito led daily harassment with racial, aggressive and sexually charged comments. Incognito was suspended for the final eight games and Martin's career was thrown in limbo.
Former Redskins tight end Chris Cooley said Sam's performance on the field and as a teammate should quickly overshadow any stereotypes about sexual orientation.
"I don't think he faces any challenges as a player. I don't think he faces a lot of challenges as a person," Cooley said. "I think once he establishes himself as the kind of teammate he's going to be, I think everybody will accept it fine."
Eagles All-Pro guard Evan Mathis said Sam will face obstacles no matter what.
"NFL players shouldn't judge Michael Sam based on his sexuality but some guys will. MLB players shouldn't have judged Jackie Robinson based on his skin color but some did," Mathis said.
"Whether or not the NFL is ready for it, it needs to happen. There are still people on this Earth who lived through the prohibition of alcohol and the Civil Rights movement. They can look back and reflect on how primitive those times were.
"Current generations will look back at marijuana prohibition and gays having to fight for equal rights and think how primitive those times were."

The Oglala Sioux tribe is asking federal authorities to reopen investigations into 16 more unresolved deaths and disappearances on or near South Dakota's Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.
U.S. Attorney Brendan Johnson tells The Associated Press that his office will consider the new cases, though he says active cases will take precedence over inactive ones.
Tribal officials presented Johnson with the list of 16 names during a Wednesday meeting in Rapid City. Lawyer Jennifer Baker says tribal officials consider the deaths unsolved murders, though one alleged victim never has been found.
The tribe submitted a separate list of 28 unresolved deaths to Johnson in May. He has devoted three attorneys from his office to re-examine those cases.
Johnson says decades-old investigations "could take a long time" but aren't impossible to prosecute.

Dial up your inner Zack Morris with bluetooth accessory, The Brick
If the cell phones of today are getting too light and thin for your liking, Binatone has just the device for you so you can relive the mobile glory days.
The UK-based electronics company, which was founded 55 years ago, just announced a new accessory called "The Brick" that connects to your smartphone through Bluetooth and lets you use it like one from the 1980s.
As for the design of this accessory, think Motorola DnyaTAC except with large speakers, a micro SD slot, FM radio and LED flashlight. Probably one of its most 80s worthy features of all, is that it also comes with the classic mobile phone game Snake. Need we say more?
The Brick offers up to one month of standby battery life and 14 hours talk time. That is, if your phone doesn't die before that.
if you're ready to look like an 80's dork once again or you think it would be the perfect holiday gift for a friend or family member, it's available now for $69.99.

let me start off saying i would have search for an answer but my search thing is disabled. so i am looking for ways to surprise my kids that we are going to Disney they are 8B,4B,and 2G and were going at the end of June. thanks for the help
We are planning to do the same with our 3 kids (10-8-5). So far, I'm planning on picking them up at school early and telling them then- literally on the way to the airport! It's going to involve a lot of sneaky packing and planning! I am also planning on giving each of them a disney gift card at that time so they can buy their own souvenirs and also get a little lesson on responsibility and budgeting. Good luck! Can't wait to hear any more ideas!
For our last trip in August we did a scavenger hunt around the house for our kids! The older kids helped out the little kids so it was great! There was little clues and notes everywhere, and none of them were expecting the big surprise! the last thing was to open this closet door and when they did a bunch of red, white, and black balloons came out with a big sign that said- "WE ARE GOING TO DISNEY TOMORROW" they all loved it and screamed in joy. It was very cute and a pretty easy idea! Good luck and have fun
When my DD was two I did a photo scavenger hunt with she and my 11yo niece. They both enjoyed it as even the 2yo could participate and find the next picture. (ie. showed them a picture of the washing machine and when they got there there was a picture of the bathroom, etc). My 2yo had fun collecting the pictures and kept them for months. It was a good way to encompass 2 very different ages.
we are surprising our kids (ages 6 and 2) with their first Disney trip in 3 weeks! We are lucky enough to only live about 2 hours from Disney, so we are just going to pick them up from school, have the car already packed, and just go once we all get home. We are going to put a Disney movie on in the car for them, and they won't know anything until we get to the resort. We did however make welcome bags full of Disney goodies, and when we get there and they see them, we will let them know that we'll be staying for 4 days It helps that my oldest thinks that "Disney" is the castle....and that's it. He doesn't realize what all Disney encompasses, so its going to be super easy to surprise him
I think part of it depends on the timing you want. Day of? Advance? That might determine it right then and there. Day of: * wake them up day you are leaving and surprise them by: * character call to tell them they are going to WDW; * mickey pancakes, Disney music in the background and a surprise delivery from Mickey with some items for the trip and a written announcement * treasure hunt (if you have to leave early, that's not going to work) * tell them at the airport if you are flying and tell them before you are flying elsewhere Advanced: * by way of cake -- some folks have done reveals on a cake. Cake plus finding out you are going to disney is always good. * treasure/scavenger hunt around the house -- this can be more leisurely and you can start off with broad clues about doing something fun, then going somewhere and finally with the Disney reveal * use the Easter basket! You can do a combo treasure/scavenger hunt and Easter basket with eggs full of clues leading to a basket announcing the trip with some stuff for the trip for all of them (movies, flip flops, sunglasses, beach towels, swim suits, etc.) * if you live near a Disney store, you can go in and they will announce it in the store and on the screen there. * get a neighbor in to ding and dash and leave a box on the front door from the main mouse himself and have it filled with balloons and a note that says they are going to WDW I'm not sure there is a bad surprise for this kind of thing! Have fun!
Our kids found out already b/c planning it with my BF's sister was impossible to talk about without them around, but this is what I had planned: my daughter (10) loves puzzles. I found a 3D puzzle of Cinderella's castle at an antique mall. They sell them in most toy stores though, too. I was going to have all three (ages 9, 10 & 13) sit down & tell them if they could build the castle they'd get a special prize - once it was completed I'd give them something useful for the trip but confusing at the time - fanny pack, water bottle carrier, etc & then after a few minutes of them making guesses at how they could use the stuff, tell them about the trip. I'm still going to have them do the puzzle, just gotta think of a different surprise now that they know we're going...

Really gorgeous shot. The colors and lighting are really wonderful and soft, giving it a very peaceful feel.
Beautiful photo. The colors absolutely pop. I like how you've made the actual location so epic but not unreachable. The two couples there add a nice touch. My only critique is that it might use a little more contrast or curves, but it's not a big deal.

Pinecone Girl White with Garland Christmas Ornaments
Personalized Christmas Ornament
ITEM IS HAND PAINTED IN GERMANY. This sweet mouth blown ornament is so lightweight and delicate. The design is completely painted around the ornament in 360 degrees. This personalized child ornament is so adorable sitting in a pinecone surrounded by pine branches and snowflakes. The snow and snowflakes are accented with what looks like glitter, but this artist actually crushes up glass to make the snow glisten! You will love this unique, hand-painted ornament from Germany hanging on your tree. Makes a great newborn baby gift or baby shower gift.
Material: Glass Ball

This second of a two-part series on JDOM examines in greater detail what it takes to use JDOM to perform some common tasks. In particular, I'll illustrate how to create JDOM documents, read JDOM documents from various sources (including SAX and DOM), output to various sources, and how to use JDOM with XSLT.
The overview of JDOM discussed in Part 1 (XML-J, Vol. 2, issue 7) revealed that JDOM bridges the gap between inconsistencies in DOM parser APIs via adapters. It also takes SAX and DOM to the next level in terms of ease of use, by compensating for the weaknesses of these APIs when it comes to XML document manipulation.
Part 1 explored the JDOM API and the packages and classes that are most significant for developing in JDOM. The main components of a JDOM document that were defined in Part 1 are critical prerequisites for understanding this article.
Creating a JDOM Document
JDOM documents can be created in two ways - from scratch or from some other input source, such as an XML document, a series of SAX events, or a DOM document. First, we'll discuss how to create a JDOM document in memory from scratch, and then, in the next section, we'll address how to output that document in various different formats.
After we create a JDOM document and show how to output its content, we will demonstrate how to input an existing XML document, a series of SAX events, or a DOM document, and convert it into a JDOM document, which is the second option for creating a JDOM document.
Creating a JDOM Document in Memory
Let's begin by creating a JDOM document in memory, from scratch. Since JDOM was written with the Java developer in mind (keeping as close to Java standards as possible), creating a new JDOM document in memory is straightforward for Java developers.
To create a JDOM document in memory using the core JDOM classes, Document and Element from the org.jdom package, use the following code:
Document doc = new Document( new
.setText("Hello World!") );
This creates, in memory, a bare bones JDOM document and stores it in the variable doc. That's all there is to it. Next, we'll look at outputting this document to the screen, so we can see what it looks like in XML.
Outputting JDOM Documents
After creating a JDOM document, it can be output using one of three primary ways:
1. org.jdom.output.DOMOutputter: As a DOM document
2. org.jdom.output.SAXOutputter: As a sequence of SAX events
3. org.jdom.output.XMLOutputter: As an XML document to a file or an output stream
As part of the org.jdom.output package, XMLOutputter outputs a JDOM document to an output stream, such as the screen, or to a file. Alternatively, the SAXOutputter or DOMOutputter classes, also of the org.jdom.output package, can be used to output the JDOM document as a series of SAX events or as a DOM document, respectively.
In Listing 1, we illustrate output using XMLOutputter to output to the standard output stream, System.out, which by default is the screen when running in a DOS/UNIX command window.
Using XMLOutputter
When a JDOM document is output as an XML document, it's output as one or two long lines of XML code unless you specify otherwise. This is fine if it's being sent to another application or system for processing, and is actually the most compact. However, it makes it very difficult to read and see the structure.
To format the XML output to improve readability - by humans, not computers - we can specify a couple of parameters when creating the XMLOutputter. The first parameter defines the level of indentation - usually as a sequence of spaces - and the second is a Boolean value that, if set to true, causes new lines to be added to the output.
Here's an example:
outputter = new XMLOutputter(" ",
outputter.output(doc, System.out);
We use this approach in our HelloWorld example shown later in the article.
Note that since XMLOutputter contains methods to output a JDOM document to a java.io.OutputStream as well as to a java.io.Writer, you can use the same approach whether outputting to a file, an output stream (such as across a network), to the screen, or to any other form of Writer or OutputStream.
Other output methods in XMLOutputter allow you to output just parts of the JDOM document such as CDATA sections, comments, elements, entities, and processing instructions. We talked about each of these components in Part 1.
The JDOM document created as described in the last example will be output to the screen. The code required is in Listing 1.
To compile this file, first ensure that you have set up your Java environment correctly for use with JDOM. Your CLASSPATH must include the xerces.jar file found in the lib subdirectory of your JDOM distribution. The xerces.jar file should be followed in the CLASSPATH by the jdom.jar file from the build subdirectory of your JDOM distribution.
Next, to compile the HelloWorld.java file, type the following code:
javac HelloWorld.java
After the HelloWorld.java file compiles, run the HelloWorld application using:
java HelloWorld
This produces the following output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <root-element>Hello World!</root-element>
The root-element tag is from the code defined in the HelloWorld.java file, specifically from the line that instantiates a new Element. Here is the code that defines the name of the new Element.
new Element("root-element")
The text "Hello World!" also was defined in the code in the HelloWorld.java file and by the call to the setText method. The following code defines the text for the root element:
new Element("root-element").setText("Hello World!")
As you can see, using JDOM, it's possible to produce perfectly valid XML output with little prior knowledge of XML. This was one of the original goals of JDOM.
Outputting Using DOMOutputter
We just saw how to output a JDOM document as an XML file. Using DOMOutputter, we can output a JDOM document as a DOM document. This is useful when interfacing with another application or system that expects a DOM document as its input.
The following lines of code show how to create and use DOMOutputter to output a JDOM document, doc.
DOMOutputter outputter = new DOMOutputter(); outputter.output( doc );
In addition to outputting JDOM documents, DOMOutputter also provides methods that allow you to output JDOM elements and attributes. See the JDOM API documentation for details.
Outputting Using SAXOutputter
We just saw how to output a JDOM document as an XML file and as a DOM document. The final way to output a JDOM document is as a sequence of SAX events. This is useful for interfacing with applications or components that handle a series of SAX events.
When constructing a SAXOutputter, you must specify a SAX content handler (actually an org.xml.sax.ContentHandler) as a minimum. You then have the option of specifying a SAX error handler (org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler), DTD handler (org.xml.sax.DTDHandler), and entity handler (org.xml.sax.EntityHandler) after you have created the SAXOutputter object.
The following lines of code show how to create and use SAXOutputter to output a JDOM document, doc.
SAXOutputter outputter = new SAXOutputter( contentHandler ); outputter.output( doc );
After creating a SAXOutputter object, you need to invoke the output() method to pass the JDOM document object you want to output to the outputter.
Inputting to JDOM Documents
Earlier in this article we saw how to create a JDOM document from scratch. Another way of creating a JDOM document is to read an XML document or input stream (using a SAX parser), or input a DOM document. Again, we will use an output stream to output the JDOM document.
To input an XML file, input stream, or DOM document as a JDOM document, use the SAXBuilder or DOMBuilder classes, respectively, from the org.jdom.input package.
Inputting Using SAXBuilder
Perhaps the most common means of building a JDOM document is to use SAXBuilder. SAXBuilder uses a SAX parser to parse an XML input file or input stream. Building a JDOM document using SAXBuilder is a two-step process.
In step one, you need to create a new instance of a SAXBuilder object. Next, invoke one of the build methods for reading the XML input and building a JDOM document object.
Four different constructors are available for creating a new SAXBuilder object, the primary one using the default SAX parser as determined by JAXP. Validation is turned off. It can be enabled and disabled after the construction of a SAXBuilder object by using the setValidation() method.
The other three constructors allow more control over whether or not validation is enabled or disabled and in choosing an alternate SAX parser.
After creating a SAXBuilder object, other methods are available that allow us to initialize it with a custom DTD handler, Entity resolver, XML filter, and error handler.
Once we have instantiated a new SAXBuilder object, we can use it to build a JDOM document. There are seven different publicly accessible build methods available.
The main differences between the seven build methods lie in where the XML input is to come from. It can come from a variety of sources, including one specified by a java.io.File, java.io.InputStream, java.io.Reader, a URI specified as a java.lang.String, or a java.net.URL.
SAX parsers tend to be the first choice over DOM parsers because of their speed when reading in XML and generating a JDOM document. If you prefer not to use the default SAX parser with SAXBuilder, you can always substitute a third-party SAX parser.
Simply pass the name of the SAX Driver class to the SAXBuilder constructor when creating the builder. Make sure that the classes required by the alternate parser are available in your CLASSPATH. SAXBuilder will then use the specified SAX parser to build a JDOM document.
Inputting Using DOMBuilder
An alternative to the SAXBuilder is the DOMBuilder. The DOMBuilder class is intended to allow us to build a JDOM document from a preexisting DOM document. It uses basically the same steps as when using SAXBuilder.
First, create a new instance of a DOMBuilder object. Next, invoke one of the build methods to read the XML input and build a JDOM document object.
To create a new DOMBuilder object, four different constructors are available. The default constructor creates a new DOMBuilder using the default DOM parser - as specified by the default JAXP parser, or a JDOM default if not. Validation is turned off.
The default constructor with no validation suffices for most purposes, but the other three constructors allow for greater control when selecting a DOM parser. They also allow you to enable or disable validation.
After creating a DOMBuilder object, use one of the DOMBuilder.build methods to build a JDOM document from an existing DOM document object. This build method is just like the SAXBuilder.build methods except that it takes an org.w3c.dom.Document object as a single argument for its input.
In addition, DOMBuilder contains a build method that allows you to construct a JDOM element object directly from a DOM element (org.w3c.dom.Element) object. The DOMBuilder class is intended primarily as a way of generating a JDOM document from a preexisting DOM document.
The DOMBuilder class contains three additional DOMBuilder.build methods, each of these taking a single argument - either a java.io.File, java.io.InputStream, or a java.net.URL - and building a JDOM document from a file, input stream, or URL, respectively. These other methods are provided as a means of cross-checking the SAXBuilder.build methods, which is the recommended parser for XML parsing.
Generating a JDOM document using a DOM parser is slow, hence the SAX parser recommendation. The only possible exception to not using a SAX parser (via the SAXBuilder class) is if you are trying to validate the correct operation of the SAXBuilder class.
Working Together: JDOM and XSLT
One of the more common questions posted to the JDOM-interest discussion list centers on using JDOM with XSLT. There are several ways to do this. Below we look at one such way using a couple of classes from the JDOM-contrib repository.
Now that we have seen how to create, input, and output a JDOM document object, let's see how to feed it into an XSLT processor to transform one JDOM document into another.
XSLT Transformations Using JDOMResult and JDOMSource
The example described later assumes that you have downloaded and installed the JDOM-contrib files from the JDOM Web site. Refer to Part 1 of this series for details on downloading and installing JDOM. The JDOM-contrib files contain two classes intended to make using JDOM with XSLT quite straightforward. These are JDOMResult and JDOMSource. You can access these, provided the JDOM-contrib.jar file is (or its classes are) in your CLASSPATH.
In addition to the JDOM-contrib files, this example also makes use of classes from the Java API for XML Processing (JAXP) 1.1.
In Listing 2 there's a transform method - in the class XSLTDemo - that takes a JDOM document and the name of an XSLT file, then using JDOMResult and JDOMSource, transforms it according to the instructions in the given XSLT file. The transform method then returns the resulting JDOM document.
I thank Laurent Bihanic for this example, and the contribution of JDOMSource and JDOMResult to the JDOM-contrib repository.
Family Matters: Working with Children
One of the useful features of JDOM is that it allows developers to add and remove elements with a single line of code in its simplest form. For example, developers can create a child element from one line of code instead of requiring a factory method to create it for them after requesting it. However, more business logic may need to be added for greater functionality.
Once you have a JDOM document, you'll want to traverse it and possibly manipulate certain elements. JDOM makes manipulation of child elements as easy as manipulating a Java 2 List. To obtain a list of child Elements belonging to a given element, use one of the getChildren methods:
List children = element.getChildren();
List children = element.getChildren
( name );
List children = element.getChildren
( name, namespace );
These methods return a list of child elements belonging to the Element, element. If no children exist, the returned list will be empty.
Any changes to the returned list object will automatically be reflected in the underlying JDOM document. Since each of these methods return a Java 2 List object, then adding, removing, and reordering children are performed using native Java 2 List operations.
For example, to create a new child Element and add it as the second child to a list, use something like the following:
Element newChild =
new Element("child")
.setText("new child element");
children.add( 1, newChild );
Note that since the first item in a list is numbered 0, then the second item has an index of 1. Hence, the above code adds the newChild element as the second child in the list, children.
Similarly, to remove the first element (index 0) from the list, use the following:
children.remove( 0 );
The change is automatically reflected in the associated JDOM document, and the first child will be removed from the document.
As another JDOM code safety check, JDOM validates the document structure, making sure you don't have duplicate nodes above and below a child, which would result in an infinite loop. In other words, JDOM overrides the add and remove methods and makes sure there's only one parent for each child element and that that same child does not exist in a conflicting position on the tree.
This two-part series on JDOM examined in detail how this open-source Java API simplifies XML document manipulation when compared with the previous alternatives. It also describes how JDOM interacts with existing APIs for document manipulation, such as SAX and DOM. JDOM's tight, Java-centric design makes XML document creation, manipulation, transformation, and parsing a no-brainer for Java developers.
In these articles, we explored the purpose that JDOM serves in filling in the gaps where SAX and DOM fail in XML document manipulation. We also explored the JDOM API in depth, then in Part 2 we demonstrated how to use the API to perform common tasks such as inputting and outputting JDOM documents, as well as how to use JDOM with XSLT.
JDOM recently was accepted as a Java Specification Request (JSR-102) by the Java Community Process (JCP). As such, expect to hear a great deal more about JDOM in the future as it continues to be embraced by the Java community.
Special thanks to Steven Gould for sharing his expertise in JDOM and working so diligently with me on this series.

I'm Yushiro, 22, from Japan. I'm a student at the university of Tokyo and currently working at BULK HOMME, a start-up men's cosmetics company.
Hobbies: playing ice hockey, creating new businesses, reading books, travelling around the world
Yushiro has completed online and offline ID verification.
Yushiro was a very nice guest, he's clean and has much respect for the house and everyone.
We enjoyed having Yushiro around the hostel for a few days. He was always friendly and sociable and we wish him the best on his travels.
