Javascript and xml

[dustywb]

So I'm having an issue I need to work with an xml file, personally I don't like how it's laid out but I have no choice but to use it there's no changing it. Anyways I need to pull out certain values such as:

<RECORDS>
<RECORD>
<ROW
NAME="SOMETHING"
AMOUNT="24.50"
QUANTITY="10"
OPERATIONDATE="20101108"
/>
</RECORD>
</RECORDS>

Anyways I am unable to access it using getElementsByTagName("ROW")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
I'm sure it's something stupid I'm missing but I need to access the amount value. Any help would be much appreciated.

Well for anyone that's interested what I was missing was getElementsByTagName("ROW").getAttribute("AMOUNT");
searched for 2 days for that lol
