I'm parsing an XML file with Java but there's something in the XML I can't figure out. Not sure if it's an "attribute" or data or an "element", etc. How would a person fetch the 16 digit id value that are listed? This XML file is well-formed and valid and created by EMC Documentum system. Using DOM parser.

I can parse and display all other data except for the Attachment ones

...
<DropdownList1><![CDATA[value1]]></DropdownList1>
<DropdownList11><![CDATA[value1]]></DropdownList11>
<Attachment1 id_type="object_id"><![CDATA[0984598e800302d6]></Attachment1>
<Attachment1 id_type="object_id"><![CDATA[0984598e800302d9]]></Attachment1>
<Attachment1 id_type="object_id"><![CDATA[0984598e800302dc]]></Attachment1>
</CombinedForm2>

Thanks & this may not appear to be related to AJAX but I'm hoping someone will know.
