java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol:

[jollyplay]

Hello,

I am new to xml and xml parser. when i try to run my
xml parser programe i got the following error

java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: priceList.xml.

i am using JAXP DOM parser.

Can u tell me,why i am getting this error. I think it may
be .xml file. The xml file is,

<?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; ?>

<myImage titled = &quot;Antalya&quot; description = &quot;Antalya / Turkey&quot; media = &quot;antalya.jpg&quot;></myImage>

It could be the way you reference your priceList.xml file. Use url format. Try file:///dirname/priceList.xml and not just priceList.xml
