How to get value of specific child node

I am trying to access the password of a specific user like jsmith in the following xml:

<xml>
<Users>
<User>
<Name>jsmith</Name>
<Password>xyz</Password>
</User>
<User>
<Name>kmiller</Name>
<Password>abc</Password>
</Users>
<xml>

Code:

---

Element node = (Element) XPathAPI.selectSingleNode(document, "/Users/User[Username=\"" + username + "\"]");
if (node != null) {
  Element pswdNode = (Element)XPathAPI.selectSingleNode(node, "Password");
  String value = pwdNode.getFirstChild().getNodeValue();
}

---

The code above gives me a value of null. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

OK, assuming the <xml> bits aren't actually part of your xml (and the lack of closing User tag in the second User is a typo)...you're looking for a Username element, where the element is actually called Name.
