Question about xml.com

Dear all, 

I have loaded an xml file into xmldoc.
I would have expected that print commandlet.childNodes[0].toxml() would
contain the  content but that's only at print
commandlet.childNodes[1].toxml() 

The same for print commandlet.childNodes[2].toxml() 

Why are commandlet.childNodes[0] and commandlet.childNodes[2] empty? 

Thanks in advance!
