getting the value of elements in a nodelist

[deviousdexter]

i have an Xml document loaded and have used the folwing to get the nodelist for all elements with the tag "item".

XmlNodeList nodelist = Info.GetElementsByTagName("item");

each "item" contains a number of nodes.

how can i find out how many nodes exist in each element.

i can use

foreach(XmlNode N in nodelist)
{

}

to iterate through the nodes but i need to determine the count of the nodes before i get to this foreach statement.

note: i am using an XmlDocument not an XmlReader.

There's a Count property for XMLNodeList.

i dont want the xmlnode list count - i want the node count of each of the elements within xmlnodelist.
