XML Read specific Node

I want to read an specific xml node and its value for example

<customers>
<name>John</name>
<lastname>fetcher</lastname>
</customer>

and my code behind should be some thing like this (I don't know how it should be though):

Response.Write(xml.Node["name"].Value)

As I said it is just an example because I don't know how to do it.

Solution

  • The most basic answer:
    Assuming "xml" is an XMLDocument, XMLNodeList, XMLNode, etc... 

    Response.Write(xml.SelectSingleNode("//name").innerText)
