And you want to get the tags inside on the chapter number two.
You can use this code:
// Load the document XDocument loadedData = XDocument.Load("kjv.xml"); // Get the testament IEnumerable<xelement> xmlTestament = loadedData.Descendants("testament").Where(c => ((string)c.Attribute("name")).Equals("New")); // Get the book IEnumerable<xelement> xmlBook = xmlTestament.Descendants("book").Where(c => ((string)c.Attribute("name")).Equals("Matthew")); // Get the chapter IEnumerable<xelement> xmlChapter = xmlBook.Descendants("chapter").Where(c => ((string)c.Attribute("number")).Equals("2")); foreach (string s in xmlChapter.Descendants("verse")) { listBox1.Items.Add(s); } // -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is another way to get the info needed
// // Load the document XDocument loadedData = XDocument.Load("kjv.xml"); // Get the info IEnumerable<XElement> data1 = from query in loadedData.Descendants("testament") where (string)query.Attribute("name").Value == "New" from book in loadedData.Descendants("book") where (string)book.Attribute("name").Value == "Matthew" from chap in loadedData.Descendants("chapter") where (string)chap.Attribute("number").Value == "2" select chap; foreach (string s in data1.Descendants("verse")) { listBox1.Items.Add(s); } //-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
