title: Parsing individual parts of an xml file from WebService - Android
body: <p>I'm trying to parse the sunrise and sunset time from this <a href="http://www.earthtools.org/sun/52.77431872/-1.20639/4/12/99/0" rel="nofollow">webservice</a> and display them into two separate textviews.</p>
  
  <p>I've been trying to follow this tutorial but I'm struggling to understand how to adapt it:
  <a href="http://www.androidhive.info/2011/11/android-xml-parsing-tutorial/" rel="nofollow">http://www.androidhive.info/2011/11/android-xml-parsing-tutorial/</a></p>
  
  <p>In that example the xml file has parent and child nodes and loops to collect them all, in my example I just want to grab two specific parameters and be able to display them.</p>
  
  <p>This is the code I currently have, at the moment it calls the webservice and display the full xml file in an EditText. I need to work out how parse the individual values rather than all of it.</p>

  <p>I've been attempting to sort this for a while now and I'm about ready to give up, if anybody could help me out and show me some working code to grab the sunset and sunrise times that would be amazing.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for looking x</p>
