I am working with a program which takes as input parsed XML data. When element <a> precedes element <b> in the XML document, everything works great. But when element <b> precedes element <a>, the value of element <a> is not captured.
Is the sequence of XML elements at the same level significant to the validity of the document? Or is the program deficient by capturing the value of <a> only when it precedes <b>?
There is no schema for this document.
