GWT - XML parser - cannot read tag

I just faced a problem with gwt xml parser

the thing is ...

I have xml like

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<A>
<B>
<C>C1</C>
<C>C2</C>
<C>C3</C>
</B>
<B></B>
</A>
<A>
</A>

and gwt code...

Document document = XMLParser.parse(xml);
NodeList nl= document.getElementsByTagName("A");
Window.alert("threads length = "+nl.getLength());

for some reason nl.getLength() returns 0 that means there is no A tag :( Why that may happen and how to get xml structure correctly?

Any useful comment is appreciated

So to close this question...

Strictly speaking, an XML document can only contain one top-level (or "root") element node. That has two.

XMLParser will apparently "not work correctly" for this malformed XML input <-- please feel free to add details here or in a comment :)

Happy coding.
