getElementsByTagName

[maclav]

Hi
I am very new to ajax. I am a web developer that has inherited some code and new to ass some new functionality.
I am trying to use this function and have read a lot but cant wrap my head round it :
responseXML.getElementsByTagName
Here is the chunk of code I have written. Could you look at it and see if there is anything glaringly obvious in these.

							if (responseXML.getElementsByTagName('CcErrCode')[0].firstChild.data != "1") 
							{
								alert(responseXML.getElementsByTagName('text')[0].firstChild.data);
							}

I would appreciate any help or links to information regarding this that is understandable to java noob.
Thanks
Ian

This code retrieves in responseXML Dom Element the first ("[0]") element whose tagname is equal to "CcErrCode".
If the content of its first child node is equals to "1", it displays a message box (alert) whose message is the content of first child of first node with "text" tagName.
