Method

booleanhasChildElement(Element elem, String namespace, String localName)
Checks if a DOM Element has a child element with the given qualified name. 
return elem.getElementsByTagNameNS(namespace, localName).getLength() > 0;
booleanhasChildElement(Element element, String name)
Returns true if the specified element has a child with the specified name or false otherwise. 
NodeList nodeList = element.getChildNodes();
for (int i = 0; i < nodeList.getLength(); i++) {
    Node node = nodeList.item(i);
    if (node instanceof Element) {
        Element childElement = (Element) node;
        if (childElement.getNodeName().equals(name)) {
            return true;
return false;
booleanhasChildElement(NodeList list)
Checks if the given NodeList contains a child element. 
Node n;
for (int i = 0; i < list.getLength(); i++) {
    n = list.item(i);
    if (n.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE) {
        return true;
return false;
...
booleanhasChildElement(TreeWalker walker)
has Child Element 
Node current = walker.getCurrentNode();
Node child = walker.firstChild();
if (child != null) {
    walker.setCurrentNode(current);
    return true;
return false;
booleanhasChildElementNodes(@Nonnull final Node aStartNode)
Check if the passed node has at least one direct child element or not. 
return getFirstChildElement(aStartNode) != null;
booleanhasChildElements(Element element)
True if element has children elements 
NodeList childs = element.getChildNodes();
for (int i = 0; i < childs.getLength(); i++) {
    Node node = childs.item(i);
    if (Node.ELEMENT_NODE == node.getNodeType()) {
        return true;
return false;
...
booleanhasChildElements(Element element)
Determine whether an element has any child elements. 
Node child = element.getFirstChild();
while (child != null) {
    if (child.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE)
        return true;
    child = child.getNextSibling();
return false;
booleanhasChildElements(Element element)
Indicates whether element has any child element. 
NodeList childNodes = element.getChildNodes();
for (int i = 0; i < childNodes.getLength(); i++) {
    Node node = childNodes.item(i);
    if (node.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE) {
        return true;
return false;
...
booleanhasChildElements(Node node)
True if the node has child elements 
NodeList nlist = node.getChildNodes();
int len = nlist.getLength();
for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {
    Node child = nlist.item(i);
    if (child.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE)
        return true;
return false;
...
booleanhasChildElements(Node node)
True if the node has child elements. 
NodeList nlist = node.getChildNodes();
for (int i = 0; i < nlist.getLength(); i++) {
    Node child = nlist.item(i);
    if (child.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE)
        return true;
return false;
